Report: Philadelphia Eagles closing in on deals for key duo

The Philadelphia Eagles are close to agreeing new contracts for wide receiver Riley Cooper and center Jason Kelce, according to a report.

On Wednesday, the Philadelphia Inquirer stated that deals for the pair were almost complete, with Cooper due to become a free agent next month while Kelce is entering the final year of his rookie deal.

Last season, Cooper caught 47 passes for 835 yards and eight touchdowns filling in for the injured Jeremy Maclin, who tore his ACL last July and missed the entire campaign.

Meanwhile, an agreement with Kelce would mean that the Eagles will have their entire offensive line locked into long-term deals.

The Eagles have confirmed that left tackle Jason Peters has signed his new contract.
