FOXSports' Jay Glazer is reporting that defensive end Jason Babin will re-join the Eagles and has agreed to a five-year contract.

Babin, a former first round pick, is coming off a breakout Pro Bowl season in which he recorded 12.5 sacks under Jim Washburn in Tennessee. Washburn, of course, is Philadelphia's new defensive line coach.
