What Ryan Kerrigan’s arrival means for Derek Barnett

The Philadelphia Eagles made a surprise signing today by adding edge rusher Ryan Kerrigan to the roster. Kerrigan has been a consistent force along the defensive line in Washington for the last 10 years. He’ll join an edge rusher rotation in Philadelphia that is getting increasingly crowded. This may be a sign that more roster moves are coming, with more question marks being raised around Derek Barnett.

Derek Barnett has been a solid, yet unspectacular player since he was selected in the first round of the NFL Draft. Barnett has battled through a laundry list of injuries and is certainly overpaid with a hefty $10 million dollar price tag.
