Posted by Matt Loede on September 2nd, 2007 filed in News

On Sunday, the Eagles signed veteran DT Kimo von Oelhoffen to a one-year contract and placed DT Ian Scott on the minor injured reserve list. Von Oelhoffen was just relesed by the New York Jets in their final round of cuts.

In his career, von Oelhoffen has notched 395 tackles, 26 1/2 sacks, 3 forced fumbles and 7 fumble recoveries in 192 career games with the Bengals, Steelers and Jets. He is a tough player and has played in 105 consecutive games.

This signing is bad news for DE Ian Scott who will be released by the Eagels when he is healthy.
