Philadelphia Eagles sign former Bears wide receiver to futures contract

The Philadelphia Eagles signed free agent wide receiver Marquess Wilson to a reserve/futures contract, according to a report from NFL insider Field Yates.

Note that Wilson isn’t joining the Eagles’ current 53-man roster. They would’ve had to clear a roster spot for him if that was the case. Instead, this deal means Wilson will be on Philadelphia’s 90-man offseason roster once the Eagles’ season is over.

Wilson is 25 years old. Chicago originally selected him with a seventh-round pick in the 2013 NFL Draft.

The Bears started Wilson in 14 out of the 34 games he played over four years.
