The Philadelphia Eagles have a knack for making the right additions. This time, Howie Roseman's latest move comes just before a showdown with the Kansas City Chiefs.
Just one day after besting the Dallas Cowboys in Week 1 in the NFL's season opener, the Eagles have signed veteran edge rusher Za’Darius Smith to a one-year deal worth up to $9 million, according to reporter Jordan Schultz.
The timing of Smith's signing couldn’t be more dramatic, with a Week 2 rematch of Super Bowl LIX against the Chiefs waiting on deck.
Smith, a three-time Pro Bowler, brings both production and experience to a defensive front that gave Patrick Mahomes fits the last time around.
