Roxborough's Bailey Has Two Catches in Eagles Win

Rasheed Bailey, the Roxborough native trying to make the Philadelphia Eagles’ roster this preseason, had two catches for ten yards in the Eagles’ Saturday night preseason win over the Green Bay Packers. And after the game, Bailey survived an initial round of cuts on the Eagles’ roster.

Bailey was one of 12 Eagles players with at least two catches in the 39-26 win at Lambeau Field in Green Bay.

While Bailey was in the game in the fourth quarter, announcers praised his play and predicted that he was likely to stick on the Eagles’ practice squad.

As was also mentioned on the broadcast, Bailey told the Allentown Morning Call that the trip to Green Bay was just the second time he has been on an airplane. The first was earlier this year, when he flew to California to work out with teammates.
