Eagles Trade CB Asante Samuel to the Atlanta Falcons

Philadelphia Eagles have traded Pro-Bowl cornerback Asante Samuel to the Atlanta Falcons.

Samuel’s contract with the Eagles called for him to earn $9.9 million in 2012 and $11.4 million in 2013.

The Falcons are working on restructuring the final two years of Samuel’s contract. It is likely going to be a sixth-round pick flying back to Philadelphia in exchange for the cornerback’s services.
