Ex-Falcons OL Matt Hennessy signing 1-year deal with Eagles

The Atlanta Falcons have added two starters to their offense since the start of the legal tampering period, agreeing to terms with quarterback Kirk Cousins and wide receiver Darnell Mooney.

While the team was recruiting Cousins and Mooney, two Falcons free agents found new homes. Cornerback Jeff Okudah has agreed to a one-year deal with the Houston Texans and offensive lineman Matt Hennessy is signing with the Philadelphia Eagles.

The Eagles are signing OL Matt Hennessy, a league source tells @Bo_Wulf and me. They agreed to terms on a one-year deal.

Hennessy, 26, started 22 games for the Falcons since entering the league as a third-round pick in 2020 out of Temple. Adds depth on the interior.

Hennessy, 26, has appeared in 41 games with 22 stars since entering the league as a third-round pick in 2020. Last season, Hennessy was in line to start at left guard but was injured and eventually replaced by second-round pick Matthew Bergeron.
