The Philadelphia Eagles and free agent defensive end Chris Long agreed to terms on a one-year deal Tuesday.

Fantasy Impact

Long, formerly of the Patriots and Rams, signed with the Eagles Tuesday. He will add depth to Philadelphia's defensive front seven and leadership on the field and in the locker room. The nine-year veteran accumulated 35 tackles and four sacks with the Super Bowl Champion Patriots last season.

According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, the New England Patriots and former Los Angeles Rams DE Chris Long agreed to terms on a one-year deal on Tuesday. Rapoport added that Long is Chandler Jones' replacement. Jones was traded to the Arizona Cardinals earlier in the day.

Fantasy Impact

Following a handful of visits around the NFL, Chris Long signed with the Patriots on Tuesday. It will be the veteran pass rusher's best opportunity to win a championship in his eight-years as a pro. Long is a leader in the locker room and brings quality production on the football field. He finished last season with 19 total tackles, three sacks and a forced fumble over the course of 12 games.

According to ESPN's Asam Schefter, free agent pass rusher Chris Long will visit the Dallas Cowboys.

Fantasy Impact

Chris Long could add experience to a young Cowboys's defense and help bolster their pass rush. Long was released by the Rams last month and visited the Redskins last week. With the likely departure of Greg Hardy and Randy Gregory's suspension looming, Long would become an instant impact on Dallas' defense.

Former Rams' DE Chris Long is scheduled to visit the Redskins on Tuesday according to Ian Rapoport.

Fantasy Impact

Chris Long could replace the recently released Jason Hatcher on Washington's defensive line. Long will garner attention from a number of other teams in the wake of his unexpected release last month.

Chris Long suffered a hyperextended knee and avoided ligament damage. He is expected to miss 2-3 weeks.

Fantasy Impact

The Rams have a bye in Week 6 so this injury came at the best possible time. Depending on how quickly Long can heal, he could potentially miss just one game. The Rams' next three opponents are the Browns, 49ers and Vikings.
