As Philadelphia Eagles doctors were giving newly acquired running back Jerome Harrison his physical, they discovered a brain tumor that nullified a trade with the Detroit Lions, according to two league sources.

The trade might have actually saved Harrison's life, the sources said. Without the deal being made, Harrison would not have undergone a physical. The tumor is now being treated, according to sources...
:clap:

Wow

Not that I understand the trade anyways. They have Vick, McCoy, and Lewis, what was the point of Brown/Harrison? "FB" dive?

The Eagles thought Harrison's running style was a better fit for their offense.

"The Ghost" was awesome in his time at WSU, hopefully he'll make a full recovery. Crazy story.
