For the second time in a day the Los Angeles Rams are losing a member of their secondary to an NFC East team. Earlier in the day, the New York Giants signed Janoris Jenkins away from the Rams and now the Philadelphia Eagles are poised to bring in Rodney McLeod to the East coast.
McLeod, who will be 26-years-old going into 2016, has yet to miss a game in his four year NFL career. He will be joining Philly and All-Pro safety Malcolm Jenkins in what could be in the running for best safety duo in the NFL going into 2016.
Following from Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

Rodney is coming off a year where he had a career-high four interceptions and three forced fumbles to go along with 59 tackles and five passes defended.
The Eagles are slowly but surely remaking their roster after cutting bait with failed Chip Kelly signees in Byron Maxwell, Kiko Alonso and star running back DeMarco Murray
