Disgruntled Eagles‘ cornerback Lito Sheppard has hired infamous super agent Drew Rosenhaus to represent him in his attempts to negotiate a new contract.

It’s a move that will likely provoke bad memories amongst the Eagles’ faithful.

According to news reports, the two sides had an initial meeting Wednesday and look forward to getting a deal done and avoiding the ugliness that occurred the last time that Rosenhaus held negotiations with the Eagles when he represented Terrell Owens.

Sheppard is due to earn a base salary of $2 million in 2008.
