Eagles signed FB/TE Emil Igwenagu off their practice squad

Found December 11, 2012 on NFL Draft Zone: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Emil Igwenagu,  Brent Celek,  Clay Harbor,  Nick Foles
TEAMS: Philadelphia Eagles
Eagles signed FB/TE Emil Igwenagu off their practice squad. Igwenagu is a H-back type that got a lot of reps during training camp when Brent Celek was sidelined by a sprained knee. Now he’ll back up starter Clay Harbor with Celek (concussion) ruled out of Thursday’s game against the Bengals. This could be an interesting signing, Igwenagu is a very athletic kid, and could be a good player for the new Eagles. Nick Foles looked good last week and it could be a huge factor in Emil’s growth.  We shall see if he is active this week.

Some Thoughts After The Eagles Win Against The Bucs

Via BirdsFan.com - A Philadelphia Eagles Blog  |  December 11, 2012
Going into Sunday’s game at Tampa Bay, there were two things I wanted to see out of the Eagles. First and foremost was improvement out of Nick Foles. The second was improvement from the defense. Win or lose, I didn’t care too much as long as I saw those things. Let’s start with Foles. Week by week, he is making positive strides. With the announcement that Michael Vick...

Injury SPIN: McCoy Ruled Out for Week 15

Via Fantasy Football SPIN  |  December 12, 2012
Bryce Brown it is once again. In our estimation it would be a mistake to play Lesean McCoy at all from here on out. The Eagles season is over and mercifully for Eagles fans the Andy Reid era is drawing to a close as well. Barring an injury it's clear that we won't see Michael Vick on the field and reading between the lines in Reid's recent comments it seems the same...
