Eagles sign a new wide receiver to help Jalen Hurts fight for the Super Bowl LVIII
The Eagles were too close from winning the Super Bowl last year. They lost it against the Kansas City Chiefs, but the team’s front office believes Jalen Hurts is the key player that will lead them to success.
Last year, the Eagles had one of the best rosters ofthe entire league, helping Jalen Hurts arrive to the Super Bowl. However, they have added a new wide receiver to increase their odds this season even more.
Olamide Zaccheaus will play for the Eagles for the 2023 season. He will joinA.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, Quez Watkins, Tyrie Cleveland, Brittain Covey, Greg Ward, and Devon Allen on the roster of wide receivers available for Hurts.
Zaccheaus went undrafted in 2019, but the Atlanta Falcons decided to give him an opportunity in the NFL. Since then, the receiver has played 55 games, with 94 receptions for 1,328 yards, and eight touchdowns.
