New Orleans – The first hours of the US Football Association Free Agency for the largest salary checks are usually booked, which are the main addresses of $ 10 million annually and that empty the portfolios of teams as the largest needs outside the season.

Four unnoticed years after the saints, the back Zach Bon fell with the eagles last March for a modest deal for a year at a value of $ 3.5 million. But what emerges now is when it happened.

“We fell on him in the first five minutes of the Free Agency,” said Hui Roseman, General Manager of Eagles, less than a week ago before his team faced leaders at Super Bowl Lix. “It was a priority. We wanted to make him feel like a priority, so he will come here.”

Bon, 28, is one of the most unlimited stars in this year, where he started in New Orleans, where he plays in the field to the home to the home until this season. Every year with the saints, he played more shots on more special teams than he did in the defense, which is a package circulated in the sub -package that reached a total of 88 confrontations and two bags in four years.

He found himself with the eagles, as he drives the defense of the appearance of Philadelphia in the second Super Paul three years ago. He had 150 treatment of this season alone, forcing five disappearances, ending with 3.5 bags, not only earning the Pro Bowl gesture, but also honors the first team Team All-PRO.

“They had a vision for me,” said Bonn, said, “They had a vision for me.” “A chance, and this is all I wanted. No one told me that I was the beginning. I didn’t get anything. I had to work in my place, and I didn’t care if it was inside or outside.”

The appearance of new beginners such as Bonn is the reason that the eagles ranked first in the American Football Association in complete defense and number 2 in the defense recording, and a great joke of the stumbling defense that left Philadelphia with disappointment from an early exit in 2023.

“I just saw a man, I loved the way you moved, I loved his instincts, and I thought it could be ILB,” said Vic Vangio, Coordinator of the Eagles Defense in the first year.

Bon was one of the falling edge in the college, where he got 12.5 bags of his first year in Wisconsin, which is enough to make him a choice in the third round with the saints in 2020. But this success did not translate at the level of the American Football Association, and he went to the agency for free other than Sure from his future, either in the field or in any uniform.

“Like many players, it is all about suitability,” said his full -back teammate Orn Berks. “He found a great attack here in the Fangio system, and allowed him to be a playmaker. The way this year is dealt with, from a professional point of view, was at the top of everything. In OTAS, so I knew that he had the ability to do this at the highest level .

Now he is one of the five final contestants defensive player in the American Football Association for the year, the newcomer in a group of five basic names: the edges of Miles Garrett (Browns), TJ WATT (Stelors) and Tri Hendricson (Bangalvs) and Corner Patrick Suertain ( Broncos (Broncos)).

“It is really great to be mentioned with these men,” Bon said. “These are the men who have been playing in this league for a long time and won a defensive title in the past year.”

On Sunday can be the last match of Labon in the costume of the eagles. He raised himself to be one of the most free agents of the American Football Association in any situation, and may have become very expensive to stay in Philadelphia. One of the great season will end in the largest stages on Sunday night, with luck, it will be among the first free agents signed in March, and this time with a much larger salary.

“Everyone wants to be required, and that eagles were for me,” he said. “Hawi was Ali immediately, Nick [Sirianni] I had a plan for me from the beginning and this means a lot to me. “
