The Philadelphia Eagles have signed former Denver Broncos safety Caden Sterns , the team announced Sunday morning .
Sterns, 24, was waived by the Broncos last Monday. He was claimed off waivers by the Carolina Panthers on Tuesday but was waived on Thursday with a failed physical designation. Sterns then cleared waivers and became a free agent. He'll now join his third team in less than a week after signing with the Eagles.

In Philadelphia , Sterns will reunite with defensive coordinator Vic Fangio, who served as Denver's head coach when Sterns was a rookie in 2021. Sterns joins Philly's safety depth chart that includes C.J. Gardner-Johnson , Reed Blankenship , Tristin McCollum and James Bradberry .
The Eagles were previously connected to ex- Broncos safety Justin Simmons , but he remains a free agent. Simmons, 30, visited the New Orleans Saints last week but left his visit without a contract . He is arguably the most notable free agent still available.
Denver, meanwhile, is moving forward with Brandon Jones, P.J. Locke , JL Skinner and Devon Key at safety .
