Gaither signs tender

A day after Chris Gocong and Ellis Hobbs signed 1-year tenders, LB Omar Gaither did the same with the Eagles today.

Gaither, 26, has amassed 329 tackles, five sacks and two interceptions during his four-year career as an inside and outside linebacker with the Eagles.

In 2009, Gaither registered 38 tackles and 1.5 sacks in five games before being sidelined for the remainder of the season with a Lisfranc sprain in his foot. A 5th-round draft pick of the Eagles in 2006, Gaither has played in 53 regular season games (34 starts) and five postseason contests.
