The Philadelphia Eagles quietly added the most valuable player of the free agency period, stealing defensive tackle Javon Hargrave away from the Pittsburg Steelers.
After a solid 2019 season in Pittsburgh, Hargraved cashed out, signing a 3-year, $39 million deal with the Eagles.
Hargrave played nose tackle in the Pittsburgh Steelers’ 3-4 defense, but he’ll move to defensive tackle, where he’ll be lined up next to the All-Pro, Fletcher Cox.
playing next to Cox will free Hargrave up for one-on-one battles, which should allow the talented defensive tackle to have a breakout season in 2020 according to Bleacher Report.
Hargrave was named one of four players who’ll have huge seasons on a new team.
A former South Carolina State star, Hargrave just turned 27 years old and was a third-round pick of Steelers in 2016.
Hargrave racked up 14.5 sacks and 168 total tackles through four seasons with the Steelers and the 6’2″, 305-pound game wrecker will bring that intensity to the Eagles.
