Sam Bradford is a coward ... at least one NFL legend believes.
The incumbent Eagles quarterback requested a trade after Philadelphia traded up prior to last month's NFL Draft in order to acquire former North Dakota State quarterback Carson Wentz with the No. 2 overall pick.
Former NFL wide receiver Terrell Owens wasn't a big fan of Bradford's hasty move.
"I think it was not a great move for Sam to want to request a trade being that they were getting a [No. 2] pick," Owens told TMZ Sports. "If it were me ... that's kind of a sign of a coward, to be honest."
Bradford, 28, played in 14 games last season and owned a 65 percent completion rate while throwing for 3,725 yards with 19 touchdowns and 14 interceptions.
The signal caller clearly panicked after watching his team give up a king's ransom to secure the second pick in the draft.
The Eagles landed the No. 2 overall pick along with a compensatory selection from the Browns in exchange for their first-rounder (8th), third-rounder (77th) and fourth-rounder (100th) in this year's draft along with their first-round selection in the 2017 NFL Draft and second-round pick in the 2018 NFL Draft.
It was especially alarming since the Eagles weren't 100 percent sure who the Rams, a team that also traded up to secure the top overall pick, were going to select, so they weren't positive which quarterback they were trading for.
Los Angeles eventually selected Jared Goff -- which was expected, but not guaranteed -- leading to Philadelphia picking Wentz.
Shortly after the Eagles traded for the picks, it was reported by multiple outlets that Bradford wanted to be traded out of Philadelphia.
There are some concerns over Wentz's ability to adjust to an NFL-style offense, but his coach at North Dakota State, Chris Klieman, said it shouldn't be an issue.
"The style of offense we play in -- we're a huddle, West Coast offense," Klieman told the New York Times last month. "We're going to go under center, let the quarterback change protections, audible to run. . . . All those things are a little lost in college football because a lot of guys go no-huddle and look to the sideline to see what the coordinator's going to run."
Though Wentz may be prepared, as Owens pointed out, all Bradford has to do is play his game and he'll be fine.
"It's Sam Bradford's job to lose," Owens said.
