Ian Rapoport says Eagles handled Cooper slur well, comments on training camp storylines
NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport joined the show to talk about Riley Cooper’s racial slur and more offseason headlines.
Rapoport said that the Cooper case shows why teams want good PR staffs. He said the team handled this very well and possibly reduced the amount of fallout.
