. “I’d like to thank my family for supporting me from day one. I’ve done nothing wrong, and am glad that was proven today.”
The Eagles, in a Friday statement, said Sills has now been removed from the commissioner’s exempt list. “We are aware that the legal matter involving Josh Sills has been adjudicated and he was found not guilty,” the Eagles said in a statement Friday. “The organization has monitored the situation. “The NFL has removed him from the Commissioner’s Exempt List and he will return to the team’s active roster.”Sills’ attorney, Michael Connick, said he now expects his client to restart his football career in earnest.
“He’ll be able to build his football career and grow as a person and be successful in all of the things that he chooses to do,” Connick said, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer. “It’s unfortunate he was accused of this. It cost him a Super Bowl appearance… He will move on and live his life in a very honorable fashion.”Share this article:
