Joshua Uche, a former linebacker for the Kansas City Chiefs, has signed a one-year contract with the Philadelphia Eagles. This move comes as the Eagles seek to bolster their pass rush following the departures of key players Josh Sweat and Brandon Graham. Uche's time with Kansas City was short, playing just six games and recording ten tackles without any sacks. Previously, he had shown promise with 20.5 career sacks while with the New England Patriots.

His potential role with the Eagles appears more defined, indicating a fresh start. Uche was acquired by the Chiefs in a trade amid high expectations but struggled to find his footing in the defensive scheme. With Philadelphia, he’s poised for a more prominent position, possibly capitalizing on his versatility as both a defense lineman and linebacker.
