The Philadelphia Eagles are reportedly locking up defensive tackle Jordan Davis to a three-year extension.

Davis finished the season with a career-high 70 tackles, nine tackles for loss and 4.5 sacks. But it was his 61-yard return of a blocked kick for a game-sealing touchdown against the Rams that highlighted the defensive tackle's growth.
