ESPN - Roundup: Eagles add versatile tight end Wilson to offense - NFL

The Eagles added versatility on offense by reaching a three-year agreement with Chiefs tight end Kris Wilson.
Wilson, 26, has the ability to catch passes as a tight end, be a H-back or help out as a blocker at fullback. In going to the Eagles, he will have a chance to develop more of his pass-receiving skills. Terms of the three-year deal weren't available.
Wilson started 22 games over the past two seasons in Kansas City, but it was hard for him to be used for his receiving skills. Tony Gonzalez is one of the best tight ends in football and gets most of the receptions. In four years in Kansas City, Wilson caught only 42 passes.
His best season was 2007 when he caught 24 passes for 180 yards. Wilson went to J.P. McCaskey High in Lancaster, Pa.

The Buffalo Bills re-signed defensive tackle Jason Jefferson, as well as cornerback Dustin Fox and receiver Scott Mayle.
Jefferson, who had been a restricted free agent, completed his third season with Buffalo, registering 20 tackles while appearing in a career-high 11 games.
Fox and Mayle were both exclusive-rights free agents and spent time on Buffalo's practice squad last season.
Fox appeared in five games with the Bills after being promoted from the practice squad. Mayle was inactive for Buffalo's season finale at Philadelphia after spending the first 16 weeks of the season on the practice squad.

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Long snapper Rob Davis retired from the Green Bay Packers, weeks after becoming the only player remaining from the team's most recent Super Bowl appearance.
Davis, a 12-year NFL veteran, will join Green Bay's front office as director of player development.
Davis took over as the Packers' long snapper in 1997 and played 167 games in a Green Bay uniform -- the third-longest streak in team history. Only Brett Favre (255) and Forrest Gregg (187) played in more consecutive games than Davis. He played the 1996 season with Chicago.

NEW YORK -- The San Francisco 49ers forfeited their fifth-round pick in next month's NFL draft after commissioner Roger Goodell said they tampered with Chicago linebacker Lance Briggs.
In a statement released by the league Monday, Goodell also said the teams will switch picks in the third round of the April 26-27 draft. Chicago, which had the 12th pick, will get San Francisco's seventh pick and the 49ers will get Chicago's choice.
