Another Eagles Player Leaves; Another Accuses Chip Kelly of Racism

Brandon Boykin is the latest former Eagle to suggest that the coach who traded him, Chip Kelly, was motivated by racism.

In a text message to Comcast SportsNet’s Derrick Gunn, Boykin said Kelly is “uncomfortable around grown men of our culture.”

Boykin suggested that he agrees with former Eagles running back LeSean McCoy, who said after he was traded to the Bills that Kelly was getting rid of all the good black players. (Via PFT) 

This is out of control. If you didn't know, Philadelphia Eagles traded talented cornerback Brandon Boykin to Pittsburgh Steelers for a fifth round pick. Boykin, an African-American, did the same thing other former Eagles have done, call Chip Kelly a racist. I feel like the players who leave the Philadelphia Eagles all participate in this groupthink idea that Kelly is a racist. I don't dispute the idea that he needs to have control as it's been noted everywhere Kelly is a control freak. I'm curious if Philadelphia released Riley Cooper after his racist comments if any of this shit even happens going forward. Mark Sanchez had a good comment about this whole ordeal today.
