The Philadelphia Eagles have signed Emmanuel Acho to compensate for Jordan Hicks season ending pectoral injury.
Acho has played for the Eagles in the past, going all the way back to 2013. The Eagles acquired the linebacker from the Cleveland Browns in 2013 and he appeared in six games for the team. Acho also appeared in 14 games in 2014 starting two. Acho injured his hand and was waived with an injury settlement in September.
Acho and the Eagles announced the re-sign last night via Twitter.
The move is needed because Hicks’ absence creates a huge void.
