Things are picking up for the Eagles in free agency, as the team signed Terrell Edmunds to a one-year deal.
Edmunds had 70 tackles (41 sols, three for loss), two sacks, and five passes defended in Pittsburgh last season, and offers the versatility to play in the box and the slot, along with free safety.
Edmunds spent his first five seasons with Pittsburgh after the Steelers made him a first-round selection in the 2018 NFL Draft.

#Eagles get another player of need on one year contract. The way the #NFL is going many good players are having to sign one year deals. @SportsRadioWIP https://t.co/HVFzSUSnDT

Safety was a massive need spot for the Eagles. Edmunds is a solid, versatile option who can align all over the formation. They also brought in Justin Evans and Marquise Blair to compete. https://t.co/23n25OIOl0

Terrell Edmunds is 26 years old, and has started every game he’s played in for Steelers over the last two years.
He’s best suited in the box coming down hill. Nice addition to the safety room. pic.twitter.com/sqZG8G599w
