Sky News: The Eagles have already defeated the Cowboys, and free agent Shaquille Leonard has decided to sign a contract with the team.

As we approach the second Beat Dallas week of the season, the Eagles have already defeated the Cowboys once thanks to the news that Shaquille Leonard, a free agent, has chosen to sign with Philadelphia. Leonard did as head coach Nick Sirianni instructed, choosing what was best for him and his family.

After being waived by the Colts almost two weeks prior, Leonard visited the Cowboys and the Eagles. After Week 13, the linebacker was supposed to make his choice.

With the 49ers dominating the middle of the field (read: Nicholas Morrow) for the entire game on Sunday, the Eagles more than demonstrated their need for Leonard. Philadelphia’s linebacker position is undersized.
