It turns out that the "mystery player" that was referenced in the fanshot below was DT Willie Williams, who signed with the Eagles today.
The 6-4, 305 lb Williams is a 2nd year player out of Louisville who spent time on the Rams' practice squad last year.
Since Jeremy Maclin is still not in camp, the Eagles didn't have to cut anyone to add Williams to the roster. When Maclin does sign, Willie may very well find his stint with the Eagles short lived.

The man's name is William Williams
I SOOO want him to make the squad
About 10 minutes ago, I was pondering my own existence. Then I decided that it didn't matter.

I like that this gives the Eagles more competition at DT, and I gotta admit, Willie Williams is already making a bit for the coveted “Eagle With the Coolest Name” award.

sorry but
Cornelius and Macho are the top two contenders for that right now. I’d say The King is easily ahead of Willie, too. However, I’ll give his parents props for creativity.

If he can’t get off the Rams practice squad, I doubt he’ll make a dent in our DT rotation.
I am the people's troll :3™

THE willie williams??
theres no way… this is just a huge (slightly humorous) coincidence right?? Im guessing this is a different willie williams than the former #1 recruit willie williams who went to University of Miami (later transferred to Louisville). THE willie williams who shocked the recruiting world when stories of his 11 arrests came out after signing his letter.
i know that WW played LB but i just wanted to be sure.
