After a couple of stellar seasons at WVU, Rasul Douglas has been taken by the Philadelphia Eagles in the third round of the NFL Draft. He was the 99th overall pick.

Douglas looks to add depth at corner in Philadelphia, joining a staff with 2015 Pro Bowler Malcolm Jenkins. He also joins Wendell Smallwood, who was taken by the Eagles from WVU last year’s draft.

If he’s added to the starting rotation, be on the lookout for the December 10th matchup at the Los Angeles Rams, where he will potentially have to cover fellow WVU alumnus, Tavon Austin.
