Eagles Wake-Up Call: Jaws Details Geno Smith Workout

West Virginia quarterback Geno Smith worked out for teams around the league Thursday during his Pro Day.

According to a USA Today report, 29 of the NFL’s 32 franchises had a representative there, including the Eagles, who sent senior scouting adviser Tom Donahoe.

Chip Kelly and Howie Roseman did not need to attend because they already worked Smith out earlier in the week. The coach and GM were joined by owner Jeffrey Lurie on Monday in Morgantown.

Ron Jaworski was in attendance Thursday and asked Smith about his meeting with the Eagles’ brass.

Eagles Add OLB Connor Barwin

The Eagles made yet another move Thursday evening, signing Texans outside linebacker Connor Barwin to a six-year deal.

“We didn’t go into this necessarily thinking that we were going to have the opportunity for Connor,” said general manager Howie Roseman. “But as we went through the market in the last couple days, some things popped up that we hadn’t anticipated early on in the free agency process.”
