Jon Dorenbos Talked About How The Trade From The Eagles To The Saints Saved His Life - Like, Literally

Well, that’s somehow both scary and inspiring shit all rolled into one. The trade itself wasn’t that monumental. It was a freaking 37-year-old long snapper coming off a bad wrist injury in which the Birds received a 7th round pick and saved around $800K (Dorenbos was due a cool $1 mill, not a bad fucking gig). They received some value for a player who wasn’t gonna be around here much longer. A win-win all around. Little did anyone know there were forces greater than Howie Roseman’s cap magic in play. If Dorenbos didn’t get traded, he likely wouldn’t have received a standard physical that revealed his heart condition.

The universe does in fact work in mysterious ways, and Jon Dorenbos is its wizard. Like, for real. As we’ve seen before many a times, the man has a doctorate in Black Magic. How else can you explain this shit from Dorenbos The Magnificent?

Now that he’s retired, and healthy, he can work on becoming the best magician in all the land since The Great(ish) Gob. Long. Live. The Final Countdown.
