The Eagles brought in extra competition for incumbent booter Alex Henery and the ever-hopeful Carey "Murderleg" Spear on Wednesday in the form of Cody Parkey.
Philadelphia moved to acquire Parkey from the Indianapolis Colts by sending running back David Fluellen to the other side.
Undrafted
out of Auburn, Parkey signed with the Colts following this spring's NFL
Draft. He went 2-for-2 on field goals with the Colts during the
preseason, including a 45-yarder. Parkey finished his senior
season 14-of-19 on field goals while ranking first in the nation with 69
touchbacks.
According to multiple sites, Both Fluellen and Parkey were thought to have been
waived by their respective former teams earlier in the day, before both
sides agreed on a mutually beneficial deal.
