Ed Wang signs two-year deal with Philadelphia Eagles



Some news from the NFL off-season... It's a deal. The Philadelphia Eagles have signed a two-year contract with Chinese American offensive tackle Ed Wang: Eagles sign OT Ed Wang to two-year deal.

Wang, the first Chinese American player ever drafted in the NFL, was a fifth round pick by the Buffalo Bills out of Virginia Tech in 2010. He played in six games for the Bills before he missed 2011 with a thumb injury. He spent the offseason with the Oakland Raiders, but didn't make the team.
