Official practices are about to ramp up and the Eagles have brought in another veteran on the offensive line.
On Monday, the team announced the signing of Max Scharping.

Scharping was a second-round pick of the Texans in 2019. He made 33 starts with the team over three seasons before being waived and the Bengals claiming him to try and build any depth at all along their own offensive line.
He’s appeared in at least 14 games every season despite not being a starter for the past several years.
Scharping will join other vets at the position group like Matt Hennessy and Mekhi Becton as players who may compete for the starting right guard role but otherwise appear poised to compete for a backup role with draft picks Trevor Keegan and Dylan McMahon as well as vets returning to Philadelphia like Brett Toth and Fred Johnson (and potentially Le’Raven Clark, who is injured at the moment).
Scharping has played multiple positions in the past.
