The news of the trade was first reported by Jeff McLane Eagles beat reporter for The Philadelphia Inquirer.

DGB was a second-round draft pick just a year ago and had an effective rookie season for the Titans, catching 32 passes for 549 yards and four touchdowns, however early reports this season on the former Missouri receiver were not glowing. Green-Beckham showed up to camp out of shape and the Titans were recently rumored to have been questioning his work ethic.
Coming out of high school, Green-Beckham was ranked as the No. 1 overall prospect in the nation by many recruiting analysts yet only lasted two seasons in Columbia before being dismissed by former head coach Gary Pinkel. As a sophomore for Mizzou, Green-Beckham caught 12 touchdowns and had 883 receiving yards in his final season at the school. After being dismissed, DGB transferred to Oklahoma but never played after sitting out the year due to NCAA transfer rules.
After lasting only one season in Nashville, Green-Beckham may now be on his final chance in Philadelphia.
