Eagles keeping DE Babin

The Eagles re-signed DE Jason Babin to a contract with a set of new terms late on Friday.

Babin was originally signed by the Eagles on August 4, 2009 and played in all four preseason games this summer, recording 14 tackles and three sacks. A former first round draft choice of the Houston Texans in 2004, Babin has 15 sacks in 54 career games with the Texans, Seattle Seahawks and Kansas City Chiefs.

Babin showed a lot on energy and could be a contributor as long as his reps are limited. Second-year player Bryan Smith and veteran Chris Clemons have clearly fallen behind Babin.
