After a 24-20 Thursday night win over the Cowboys to open the 2025 NFL season, the reigning Super Bowl champion Eagles are signing veteran Za'Darius Smith to a one-year deal to help bolster the team's pass rush, according to a report from ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Smith, who turns 33 on Sept. 8, will now begin his 11th NFL season. He has played in 140 career games, including 96 starts. The three-time Pro Bowler has made 333 combined tackles in his career, including 85 for loss, and has tabbed 69 sacks.
Smith split time a year ago between the Cleveland Browns and Detroit Lions, playing nine games for the former and eight for the latter. He finished the season with nine sacks and 35 tackles.
