Richard Rodgers, Eagles reportedly agree to contract

The Philadelphia Eagles are signing free agent tight end Richard Rodgers to a one-year contract, according to a report from NFL insider Ian Rapoport.

Rodgers is a player I mentioned as a potential Eagles target earlier this week.

Who needs that Rodgers guy from the Packers when they already have Carson Wentz? Oh, sorry, RICHARD Rodgers. Yeah, he’s nothing special, but nothing terrible. As our friends over at Acme Packing Company recently laid out, he’s a quality No. 3 tight end. He’s not known for his blocking but he can catch so he might be ideal for the old Burton role.
