Danny Amendola will donate $200 to Boston for every drop in 2013

Like anyone who breathes and has a soul, Danny Amendola was crushed by the events in Boston yesterday, his new place of work. So he decided to tie his donations to Boston charity X to his play in the upcoming season. While certainly noble, such a move is common, and has been done since that kid asked Babe Ruth to hit nine home runs or whatever.

But since Amendola is both original and awesome, he’ll donate money even if he’s the absolute worst on any given afternoon…

For the record, even though he appeared in only 11 games this past season, Amendola’s catches in 2012 would have added up to $6,300. His drops? Just one, and just $200.

The Eagles are connected to Amendola, and maybe Revis

First off, welcome to the best NFL week that doesn’t have a very important football game at the end of it, a game in which the lights may or may not stay on. There will be so very many signings starting tomorrow at 4 p.m. ET, most of which will happen at about 4:01 thanks to the legal tampering/negotiation period over the past three days. Teams have surely reached agreements in principle with some of the hottest commodities on the open market, but since Roger Goodell thoroughly applied the duct tape late Friday night, your friends here in the media haven’t heard about them.

Sorry about that. Blame the Rodge, but now throughout the next week we’ll go about the business of documenting the gluttony and many wasted dollars, while getting little sleep. It’ll be great.

Anywho, on with the matter at hand. That headline is only a mild exaggeration, as on the eve of free agency it’s beginning to feel like the Eagles are indeed connected to every available player. I suppose that’s what happens when a team has $29 million in cap space, and a burning desire to repeat the summer of 2011 properly rebuild for new head coach Chip Kelly.

Report: Eagles interested in Amendola

Posted by Kyle Smith under Danny Amendola, Philadelphia Eagles, Rumors, St. Louis Rams on Mar 10, 2013

St. Louis Rams v Seattle Seahawks

According to Geoff Mosher of CSNPhilly.com, the Philadelphia Eagles are interested in boosting their wide receiving corps by adding the St. Louis Rams’ Danny Amendola.

They’re interested in pursuing Rams wide receiver Danny Amendola, a person with direct knowledge of the team’s free agency plans told CSNPhilly.com. Amendola, who has two 60-plus catch seasons in the past three years, is one of the NFL’s most productive slot wideouts, although he can also play outside and is an excellent return specialist.

If he signed with the Eagles (he was on the their practice squad in 2009), Amendola would join a stable of WRs that already includes: Pro Bowler DeSean Jackson, Jeremy Maclin, Jason Avant and Damaris Johnson.

During the 2012 season, Amendola missed five games with a clavicle injury, but still managed to haul in 63 catches for 666 yards and 3 touchdowns.

Amendola spikes ball in man’s face

Danny Amendola made a memorable return to the lineup today for all the wrong reasons.

After scoring his third touchdown of the season, he spiked the ball, which most players do after a touchdown, only this spike ended up nailing a security guard in the face.

Danny Amendola is ACTIVE

Posted by Sean Tomlinson under Danny Amendola, Inactives, St. Louis Rams on Nov 25, 2012

I’m not sure what’s riskier: skydiving with no parachute and testing your long-held theory that humans can levitate on command, or starting a hobbled Danny Amendola today.

But the latter option is now available to you even though the Rams receiver missed practice all week due to a heel injury and was therefore viewed as having less than zero chance of playing today. Yet here we are, looking at an inactives list for St. Louis’ game this afternoon against Arizona that doesn’t include Amendola’s name.
