The Facts: Less than a week after losing his job in Jacksonville, Kessler has found a new club. The 26-year-old quarterback is signing with the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday, a source told NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport on Sunday.
Diehards Line:In three seasons with the Jaguars and Cleveland Browns, Kessler has logged 12 starts in 17 games, completing 64.2 percent of his passes for 2,215 yards, eight TDs and five picks. Kessler will back up Carson Wentz and compete with Nate Sudfeld, Clayton Thorson and Luis Perez for a roster spot in Philly. Those 12 starts give him a big edge in experience over the other quarterbacks in Philadelphia.
