The Eagles sign Linval Joseph who was in Minnesota with Jonathan Gannon and last played with the Chargers:
Two-time Pro-Bowl DT Linval Joseph, the former Giants’ second-round pick who also played for the Vikings and Chargers, is planning to sign a one-year deal with the Eagles, per sources. The 34-year-old Joseph will embark upon his 13th NFL season for a team that needs run support.

When you need run support what do you do? You sign a massive 334 lb defensive tackle to plug the gaps:
The next five matchups for the Eagles features Jonathan Taylor, Aaron Jones, Derrick Henry, Saquon Barkley, and Justin Fields & Co. so we’re going to need the big man to produce stat. None of this Robert Quinn shit who is on the Ryan Kerrigan plan right now.
I still remember his 64 yard BIG MAN TD against the Eagles which led to one of the greatest sideline pictures ever. That man was SCOOTIN! –

P.S. A little birdie mentioned this might not be the last move.
