Free Agency: Eagles bring back two players on one-year deals

Aside from Haason Reddick, free agency has been uneventful for the Eagles.

They’ve watched prized defensive backs and receivers choose other destinations but have been able to re-sign a few of their own players.

According to multiple reports, the Eagles are bringing back safety Anthony Harris on a one-year deal.

Strong safety Anthony Harris, the former Vikings’ franchise player who spent last season with the Eagles, is returning to Philadelphia on a one-year deal, per source.

Harris spent his first six seasons in Minnesota and will return for his second season in Philadelphia. Familiarity in Jonathan Gannon’s defense undoubtedly played a factor in re-signing him after the team struck out with Marcus Williams.

Harris had 72 tackles, three passes defended, and one interception last season.

After testing free agency, Boston Scott is also returning to the Eagles on a one-year deal worth $1.75M:

Scott, otherwise known as the “Giants Killer,” has been with the squad for the last three seasons. He rushed for 373 yards and 7 TDs last season in relief of Miles Sanders and Jordan Howard.

In six career games vs. the Giants, Scott has racked up 545 all-purpose yards and eight total TDs. He’ll continue to serve as a change-of-pace back for Nick Sirianni’s offense.
