An Eagles newcomer is throwing shade! The ex-Giants pass rusher blasted his former team, vowing to mirror Saquon Barkley’s Philly success and chase Super Bowl glory, per ESPN.
Signed on March 12, 2025, this EDGE inked a one-year, low-risk deal. Fresh from New York, he’s ready to bolster Philly’s defense post-Super Bowl LIX.
Azeez Ojulari fired off: “They never believed in me at Giants—just like they doubted Barkley. Now I’m here with the Eagles, ready to prove belief makes all the difference.”
Drafted 50th overall in 2021, Ojulari notched 16 sacks in four Giants seasons. His 2024 output—4 sacks, 25 tackles—was limited by injuries.
The Eagles, losing Josh Sweat and Brandon Graham, signed Ojulari to spark Vic Fangio’s 3-4 scheme. He’ll compete with Nolan Smith and Jalyx Hunt.
Ojulari’s speed fits Fangio’s third-down plans. Bleacher Report hailed the deal as a “top value” move, giving Philly a high-upside pass rusher.
Like Barkley’s 2,504-yard 2024, Ojulari eyes a breakout. His Giants jab fuels hype, with @EaglesNation on X calling him “Philly’s next star.”
As training camp looms, Ojulari’s fire ignites Eagles Nation. Can he lead like Barkley to Super Bowl LX? Philly’s ready for his impact.
