CB Rice Embraces Competition In Roster Push

The Eagles drafted a cornerback in the second round of May's NFL Draft. In the sixth round, they drafted another. And then another. And yet, with interest from more than 10 teams as an undrafted free agent, Denzel Rice chose to sign with the Eagles, despite their addition of not one, not two, but three players at his position in the draft.

"(JaCorey Shepherd and Randall Evans) got drafted pretty late, so I felt like we were kind of even, you know?" Rice said after an Organized Team Activity last week.
