According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, the Philadelphia Eagles are signing OT Mehki Becton to a one-year contract worth up to $5.5M.
The Eagles are coming off the back of a stunning NFL Draft where they did add two OL prospects, but neither are suited to play tackle. After Jack Driscoll signed a new deal with the Miami Dolphins, depth behind both Jordan Mailata and Lane Johnson was left fairly empty. Adding a veteran backup who is capable of stepping in at a moments notice made a ton of sense, and Becton was one of the best names remaining on the open market.
