The Eagles have signed long snapper Jon Dorenbos to a five year extension Saturday. Dorenbos is best known for performing magic shows in Hollywood and Las Vegas. Dorenbos took up magic as a child, to help ease his mind, after his mother was murdered by his father.
"Jon has been a very good long snapper for us over the last year and a half," Eagles general manager Tom Heckert said. "Good, consistent long snappers are hard to find and we wanted to shore up that position for the next several years."
Dorenbos was signed by the Eagles last season after Mike Bartrum was injured. Dorenbos has also spent time in Tennessee and Buffalo. Dorenbos would have become an unrestricted free agent following this season. - AE, Philadelphia Eagles Team Captain
