Report: Eagles sign rookie minicamp tryout player to roster

At least one of the 22 tryout participants at the Philadelphia Eagles’ rookie minicamp made a positive impression over the weekend. The team is signing undrafted rookie free agent cornerback Shon Stephens to their offseason roster, according to a report from Andrew DiCecco.

ESPN’s Tim McManus previously noted Stephens was “off to a strong start in camp.” Stephens, cousin of Joey Porter Junior, was also invited to the Pittsburgh Steelers’ rookie minicamp but obviously won’t be attending now.

The Athletic’s Dane Brugler had Stephens graded as a priority free agent signing.
