Eagles, veteran TE Dan Arnold agree to terms on 1-year deal
The Eagles are bringing in some tight end competition.
The team and veteran Dan Arnold agreed to terms of a one-year deal, a league source confirmed to NBC Sports Philadelphia. ESPNs Adam Schefter first reported the deal.
Arnold, 28, entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent in 2017 and has carved out a decent career. His best season came with the Cardinals in 2020, when he caught 31 passes for 438 yards and 4 touchdowns.
In 2022, Arnold (6-6, 240) played all 17 games with the Jaguars. He caught 9 passes for 135 yards. He played a total of 167 snaps (15%) in the regular season.
In Philly, Arnold will be competing for a job in a tight end room led by star Dallas Goedert. But after Goedert, the Eagles have questionable depth. They bring back the No. 2 Jack Stoll and the No. 3 Grant Calcaterra from last seasons roster in addition to Tyree Jackson, who has been with the Eagles for a couple seasons.
Theres no guarantee Arnold will make the Eagles 53-man roster but hell have a chance to compete for a job in training camp with Stoll, Calcaterra and Jackson.
The Eagles will kick off their rookie camp this weekend and voluntary OTAs begin on May 30.
