A familiar name could be on the Philadelphia Eagles' radar this offseason.

The Eagles are not expected to use the franchise tag on quarterback Sam Bradford, and may have interest in re-acquiring Nick Foles, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

This news comes a little under a year after the Eagles sent Foles, a 2015 fourth-round draft pick, and a 2016 second-round pick to the Rams in exchange for Bradford and a 2015 fifth-round pick.

New head coach Doug Pederson was the Eagles' quarterbacks coach during Foles' rookie season in 2012.

Foles went 4-7 in his first season with the Rams, completing a career-low 56.4 percent of his passes for 2,052 yards with seven touchdowns and 10 interceptions. He's under contract with the team through 2017.
