The Philadelphia Eagles will hop right back on the Sam Bradford bandwagon in 2016 and ’17 after the team opted to sign him for two more seasons.

The 28-year-old Bradford signed a two-year deal worth $36 million including $26 million guaranteed.

The injury-plagued Bradford, who missed two games last season, threw 19 touchdown passes to 14 interceptions in 2015.

It’s a wise maneuver by the Eagles because it allows them to not take a big hit on the salary hit by using a franchise tag on Bradford.

Instead, the Eagles can allocate their dollars to provide some form of cap relief – similar to what New England did with Tom Brady on Monday.

Somewhere, Colts quarterback Andrew Luck, who will be inking a new deal in the new future, was probably cackling loudly after hearing about the Bradford deal.

Anyhow, let’s hope there is a lot less of this next season:

Cross your fingers.
