The Eagles are signing veteran defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh to a one-year deal, the team announced Thursday. The news was first broken by NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and ESPN’s Adam Schefter. The move comes just a day after signing defensive tackle Linval Joseph to a one-year deal.
Suh, 35, was last signed by the Buccaneers in 2021 where he tallied six sacks, 27 tackles and 13 quarterback hits. The five-time All-Pro is a sore need for an Eagles squad that appears soft in the middle.
Philadelphia is coming off its first loss of the season and is moving quickly to address its biggest weakness made clear on Monday Night Football: stopping the run. The Eagles (8–1) lost their bid for a perfect season largely because the Commanders were able to dominate time of possession with the run game.
