Eagles president Joe Banner has gone on the record to dispute our Thursday report regarding speculation around the league that Banner could be looking to nudge coach/G.M. Andy Reid out of the organization, if the team underachieves in 2003.
Calling the rumors "far fetched," Banner told us on Friday that "Andy Reid and I have the best relationship of any two people in our respective positions in the entire NFL. Anybody who has worked with us knows that and anybody who is friends with us around the league knows that."
We don't have any reason to question Banner's word on this, but it doesn't change the fact that folks in league circles are watching the Banner/Reid relationship very carefully as the 2003 season approaches.
