Eagles Encouraged to Consider Reunion With Former All-Pro LB
NFL pundits largely consider safety the biggest remaining need for the Philadelphia Eagles this offseason. But linebacker is another position that could use an upgrade or additional depth. SI.com’s Eagles Today’s Patrick McAvoy argued to fill that need at linebacker, the Eagles should consider bringing back former All-Pro Shaquille Leonard.The veteran linebacker played the final five games of the 2023 regular season with Philadelphia.“One player who could make a lot of sense is veteran linebacker Shaquille Leonard,” wrote McAvoy.“He missed the majority of the 2022 season so the 2023 campaign was his way of working off the rust and getting back on the field. If the Eagles want to add to the linebacker room, they should take a chance on him because he isn’t far removed from being a star and is just 28 years old.“Philadelphia still has money to spend and should consider a reunion.”Leonard, who will turn 29 on July 27, missed most of the 2022 season because of a back injury. He underwent offseason back surgery in June 2022 and then needed a second procedure in November of that year.In 14 games with the Eagles and Indianapolis Colts combined last season, Leonard posted 88 combined tackles, including 4 tackles for loss, 1 quarterback hit and 1 sack.
