According to an ESPN report, Eagles’ cornerback Sheldon Brown is fed up that the team refuses to renegotiate his contract and has requested a trade.

Brown signed a contract extension in 2004 that would keep him in Philadelphia until 2012, but that was two years before the collective bargaining agreement opened up the salary cap to previously unprecedented levels.

According to Les Bowen of the Philadelphia Inquirer, Brown has been attempting to negotiate with the Eagles for months now, but the team has flatly refused.

So now the pro-bowl cornerback is demanding the Eagles trade him.

The Eagles are reportedly aware of the report, but have yet to comment.

According to Bowen, Brown has not made it a secret that he (along with the now departed Lito Sheppard) wanted his deal reworked, but the assumption was that the Eagles would accomodate him in some fashion. Brown is thoroughly more durable than Sheppard, who was shipped off to the New York Jets earlier this off-season.

With the NFL draft this coming Saturday, the Eagles could trade Brown for a better pick, or perhaps as part of a package to acquire Anquan Boldin from the Arizona Cardinals.

With the trade for left tackle Jason Peters over the weekend, many around the league believed the Eagles were out of the Boldin sweepstakes, but team President Joe Banner indicated yesterday that the team was still very open to acquiring the pro-bowl receiver, for the right deal.

Could the right deal include Sheldon Brown?
