PHILADELPHIA -- The Philadelphia Eagles traded long snapper Jon Dorenbos to the New Orleans Saints for a seventh-round pick in 2019 Monday.
With the Eagles since 2006, Dorenbos was the longest-tenured player on the roster. He grew into a local icon over the past 11 years and became a national star as his magic got him to the finals of "America's Got Talent".
He appeared in a franchise-record 162 consecutive regular season games, tying wide receiver Harold Carmichael, and earned two Pro Bowl berths while in Philly.
"Jon is one of the most inspiring people I have ever known," owner Jeffrey Lurie said in a statement.
