The Philadelphia Eagles signed familiar face recently as they added former San Antonio Commanders wide receiver Greg Ward back to their roster.

The Philadelphia Eagles are set to add some talent in the form of Greg Ward to the wide receivers’ room. In the wake of the AAf’s decision to suspend operations, the league announced, on On April 4th via their official Twitter account, that players were eligible to leave their current contracts to sign new deals with any NFL team that may be interested.

Philly responded with the signing of quarterback Luis Perez and someone they were already familiar with, the aforementioned Ward.

Take a look:

Ward’s signing catches the attention because he’s a familiar face. He’s a guy the team knows. He’s a guy the fan knows. Will this new opportunity lead to NFL stardom, or will it, simply, end with another trip to the practice squad? Here are a few things of note as we wait for those questions to be answered.
