The Eagles were interested in Peyton Manning, but their position in the NFC East made a deal a non-starter.
According to the Los Angeles Times, Andy Reid wanted to make a run at signing Manning.
However, Philadelphia was never a serious contender for Manning because he didn't want to play his brother, Eli, and the Giants twice a season.
Reid denied the report on Friday in a statement.
