The Philadelphia Eagles signed defensive end Ogbo Okoronkwo and defensive tackle Jacob Sykes on Tuesday.
The team also waived defensive end K.J. Henry and running back Lew Nichols as training camp got underway.
The Cleveland Browns released Okoronkwo last month with one year left on a three-year, $19 million contract.
Okoronkwo, 30, recorded 23 tackles and three sacks in 16 games (five starts) last season.
A Super Bowl champion with the Los Angeles Rams, Okoronkwo has totaled 132 tackles and 17 sacks in 80 career games (13 starts) with the Rams (2019-21), Houston Texans (2022) and Browns. He was selected by the Rams in the fifth round of the 2018 NFL Draft.
Sykes, 25, played for the UFL's San Antonio Brahmas from 2024-25. He spent the 2023 offseason with the Seattle Seahawks after going undrafted out of UCLA.
Henry, 26, has 2.5 sacks and 22 tackles in 14 career games (three starts) with the Washington Commanders (2023), Cincinnati Bengals (2024) and Dallas Cowboys (2024).
Nichols, 23, was a seventh-round draft pick by the Green Bay Packers in 2023 and spent the past two seasons on the Eagles' practice squad.
