With the "tampering period" well underway leading into the open of free agency on Thursday, several of the Eagles wide receiver targets are reportedly getting new homes. That includes one coming to Philadelphia.
According to Benjamin Allbright, the Eagles will sign Kenny Britt upon the open of free agency.
Barring something big changing, my understanding is DJax to Tampa, Britt to Philly tomorrow.

Britt spent the last three seasons with the Rams, posting career numbers in 2016. Britt had 68 catches for 1,002 yards — his first 1,000-yard season — and five touchdowns. The Eagles recently hired former Rams wide receiver coach Mike Groh.
The 28-year-old receiver also has a local connection. He played college football at Rutgers and is from Bayonne, NJ.
Among the other wide receivers reportedly heading to new destinations are former Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson, who is expected to sign with Tampa Bay. Jackson's teammate in Washington, Pierre Garcon, is expected to sign with San Francisco.
Kenny Stills re-signed with the Dolphins on Wednesday, getting a four-year, $32 million deal.
Recently released Jets receiver Brandon Marshall is signing with the New York Giants on a two-year, $12 million deal.
It was also reported that recently released 49ers receiver Torrey Smith, a longtime target of the Eagles, is going to sign in Baltimore.
As of Wednesday evening, there were no indications about where Alshon Jeffery, the top free-agent receiving target, will be heading.
It is fair to note that until any deal is officially announced by the teams on Thursday afternoon, things are subject to change. All signings can become official at 4:01 p.m. on Thursday, but at least for now, it looks like the Eagles are among several teams to add receiver help.
