Well, the Eagles don't have Brian Westbrook back yet but at least we can get his apparent back-up signed before camp. It has been reported that LeSean McCoy was signed to a four-year deal Monday though the full terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Second-round pick McCoy (53d pick overall) becomes the seventh of the Eagles eight 2009 draft picks to sign.
The only one left to sign is first-round wide receiver Jeremy Maclin from Missouri.
McCoy, who gave the Birds a scare earlier in the month with a sprained left thumb, is expected to be the back-up behind Brian Westbrook going into training camp and is on the fast track to see a fair amount of playing time in 2009 as a rookie.
