Legendary Philadelphia sports personality Howard Eskin vows to retire if Eagles draft Bijan Robinson

Howard Eskin has spent over 50 years calling Philadelphia fans “dweebs” and “nitwits,” but that could all end on Thursday night.

The SPORTS RADIO 94 WIP and Fox 29 analyst has been a fixture in the sports scene for decades, and he’s had it up to here with the Bijan Robinson to the Eagles talk during this draft cycle.

During a recent appearance on 94 WIP, Eskin vowed to retire if Philadelphia selects the All-American running back from Texas at No. 10 overall.

Philadelphia hasn’t selected a running back in the first round since 1986. Still, Robinson is a “unique” player, and the Eagles have multiple first-round picks for a roster looking towards a Super Bowl return.
