The Eagles announced they have signed veteran wide receiver Julio Jones to a one-year contract Tuesday afternoon. Philadelphia initially will add Jones to its practice squad with the likely intent to transfer him to the 53-man roster soon, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.
Jones spent the first 10 years of his career with the Falcons, producing seven 1,000-yard seasons and leading the league in receiving yards twice. In that time, Jones earned seven Pro Bowl selections and was named first team All-Pro twice.
In the past two seasons, Jones played for the Titans and Buccaneers, totaling 733 receiving yards in 20 games (15 starts) between the two teams.
