Earlier this week we wrote about how Sam Bradford has looked very weak for demanding a trade and skipping practices just two months after getting paid $5.5 million. Since then, there's been indication that there isn't really a market for him.
Sal Pal said there is "absolutely nothing" going on RE: Bradford trade. #Eagles only got 1 phone call (DEN). "Rebuffed quickly" by Roseman.

Despite this, Bradford doesn't seem to be budging.
Sal Pal reiterated Sam Bradford & agent Tom Condon are "dug in" on their trade demand. "He wants out. He wants no part of a QB competition."

This idea that he doesn't want any part of a competition is silly. First of all, the Eagles aren't even making him compete for the job! Both Doug Pederson and Howie Roseman have guaranteed it to him. Second of all, just days ago Condon said that "Sam’s a competitor."
It appears that Bradford has really committed himself to the holdout.
"He (Sam Bradford) has not responded to anyone, included the coaches" @caplannfl on the #Eagles QB

We also wrote earlier this week about Bradford's "baby" behavior is very intentional. He's trying to make people mad at him in order to generate "fan pressure."
So far, so good for Bradford. But it remains to be seen if his strategy will actually work and he'll get his trade request granted.
Nah, his fiancé is going to watch something else and competing for the remote is going to be too hard for him. https://t.co/o9Zz1ilKno
