Eagles Add LB Kyzir White in Free Agency
The Eagles chances of taking a linebacker in the first-round took a hit, but their defense may have improved.
The team signed former Chargers linebacker Kyzir White on Saturday, to a one-year, $5 million contract.

The 2018 fourth-round pick from West Virginia, had 144 tackles, seven TFLs, and two interceptions for the Chargers in 2021.
White, a converted safety with solid coverage skills, should start as opposite T.J. Edwards in Jonathan Gannon's defense.
In the Eagles Week 8 loss to Los Angels, White had eight tackles, including one for loss.
