Free agent cornerback Avonte Maddox agreed to terms on a contract to return to the Philadelphia Eagles, ESPN reported on Thursday.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed for Maddox, who was cut by the Eagles at the start of the new league year.

Maddox, 28, missed 13 games last season due to a pectoral injury he sustained in Philadelphia's 34-28 victory over the Minnesota Vikings on Sept. 14. He finished with 12 tackles and a forced fumble in four games (two starts).

Maddox has recorded 250 tackles, eight forced fumbles and four interceptions in 64 games (38 starts) since being selected by the Eagles in the fourth round of the 2018 NFL Draft.
