October 21, 2008 Kyle Eckel has signed a two-year deal with the Eagles, according to the AP. Financial terms were not disclosed. The team cut safety J.R. Reed as the adjoining move.
Our View:Eckel played for the Patriots last season, while punching in two touchdowns over six games. The Eagles coveted a blocking fullback, and Eckel fits the bill.
September 22, 2008 Kyle Eckel was released on Monday just a week after he was resigned to the team's 53 man roster, according to The Providence Journal.
Our View:Eckel played in 12 games with the Patriots last season, but the team listed him as inactive yesterday and released him today.
September 15, 2008 Kyle Eckel has been re-signed to the Patriots' 53-man roster, according to the Boston Globe.
Our View:Eckel will hold no fantasy value while fighting for carries at the bottom of the depth chart at running back. He was likely added for depth in case Laurence Maroney is unable to play in Week 3 due to his shoulder injury.
