Pats interested in Feeley?
Sheil Kapadia, Philly.com
The New England Patriots are among the "many teams" interested in Eagles backup quarterback A.J. Feeley, according to Jason La Canfora of NFL.com.
The St. Louis Rams are also said to be interested.
The Eagles, however, are unlikely to part ways with Feeley before commissioner Roger Goodell announces how many games Michael Vick has to sit out.
Feeley and the Eagles nearly beat the 16-0 Patriots team back in 2007, but eventually fell, 31-28. He went 27-for-42 for 345 yards against Bill Belichick and company in Week 12 that season. Feeley tossed three touchdowns but was also picked off three times, twice by Asante Samuel.
He saw action in three games that season but did not get on the field in 2008.
The Patriots and Eagles have made a couple deals this offseason, with New England acquiring wide receiver Greg Lewis and the Birds picking up cornerback Ellis Hobbs.

I'll miss Heather Mitts more than AJ— fgoreman- I think they should say goodbye to Kolb instead of AJ - wonder if he will ever be the QB they wanted him to be.— Tom Man
- i like AJ and its a shame to see him go. He always gave them a chance to win when Don went down.— sore richard
Yeah and he smells too, "feeley stinks and he's ugly", what a dumb comment- Comment removed.
- I was under the impression that Goodell was going to announce on a Monday or a Tuesday that Vick would be reinstated for the following Sunday....— joeolive
- Feeley is better than Kolb— jkard99
- He makes big plays - but too often for the other team.
- I'll take whatever we can get for AJ— ChrisM
- The fact that the Rams, who have a former Eagle as head coach, are interested in AJ and not Corn Kolb speaks volumes about who's the better QB.— Habs68
we aren't going to carry 4 qbs anyway. so trade him for whatever you can get. A bag of footballs and a 7th rd. pick— azguz- Kolb stinks it up more than A.J. ,at least A.J. has some experience ,I keep A.J.— zogger
- With all the injuries, it seems between Vick and Kolb we are covered once the decision is made. Make a deal for a second round pick contingent on Vick returning.— psuwelsh
- Habs68-You're wrong in regards to assuming that because teams want Feeley and not Kolb that Feeley is better. If you're only looking for a veteran BACKUP QB, the younger player with upside is going to cost you a lot more than the 33 year old vet who is nothing more than a backup QB.
