Chris Clemons is pretty pleased to have signed a five year contract with the Philadelphia Eagles as he has not had a chance to play in the professional league since his rookie season for the Washington Redskins in 2003 season.  He showed a little bit of his football skills in the following 2004 season and the couple of injuries he sustained in the 2005 and 2006 season kept him away from the major league. All the things fell in place for Clemons last year in Oakland, as he recorded eight quarterback sacks and was one of the hottest players in the free agent market. Hence, Philadelphia Eagles are pretty much pleased to have roped in this popular player into their side for a five year deal.

Clemons said that he knew pretty well of his capabilities as a player and the injuries occurred to him at an important stage in his career. The Eagles are planning to have their 6 foot three player as a rotational part of their defensive system. The head coach of the Eagles, Andy Reid, thanked Clemons’s agents Don and Brooks for making the transition smooth and also thanked the Eagles President for bringing a valuable player into the team.
