The team has not officially confirmed his signing yet. The Eagles had an open roster spot after placing talented rookie Jordan Hicks on the season-ending injured reserve list on Monday afternoon.

Philadelphia waived/injured Acho in late August after the linebacker suffered a thumb injury that required him to have surgery. Since the Eagles used the waived/injured designation, Acho wasn't able to re-sign with the Eagles until only recently. So the timing worked out very well for both sides in this case.

Acho is a good personality and a serviceable backup who can contribute on special teams. The 24-year-old  linebacker played in 14 games with Philadelphia last season after originally being acquired by the Eagles during the 2013 offseason.
