Kentucky defensive end to visit Eagles, report says
Jeremy Jarmon, the Kentucky defensive end who was ruled ineligible for his senior year because of a positive test for a banned substance, will be in Philadelphia on Tuesday for a physical and meeting with the Eagles, ESPN.com's Joe Shad is reporting.
Jarmon, who has the third-most sacks in school history, plans to enter the NFL's supplemental draft on July 16. Teams bid for a player via email and the team willing to give up the highest pick in next year's draft earning the players' rights. He also plans to hold a pro day in Lexington on July 9 in advance of the draft.
"I told the NFL teams that have called that I don't even have a speeding ticket," Jarmon told ESPN.com. "If they take me they're not going to have any off-the-field problems."
At the time the positive test was revealed and his appeal was denied, Jarmon said, "I do not need to cheat to be successful." Here is more background on Jarmon from ESPN.com.
