So the news of the Mathis departure should come as no surprise, and neither should the reactions of Philly fans on twitter…we’ve selected some of the best from the past hour or so.
@EvanMathis69 Culture over talent any day of the week. We loved you and you had 1 season left on your deal..you couldn't even show up? #Bye

EVERYONE STAY INSIDE
I'm told ProFootballFocus is predicting the Apocalypse to commence immediately following the release of Evan Mathis. Find canned food.

someone FINALLY nailed it..wait it’s ESPN? Isn’t there a breaking story about Johnny Manziel walking home to report on or something?
It's never been about the foolish suggestion of race (Lesean), bottom line, if you're not on the same page with Chip Kelly, you're gone.
