The Philadelphia Eagles have signed former Winston-Salem State defensive end Alfy Hill, according to an official release from the team.
In order to make room for Hill, the Eagles waived injured linebacker Brandon Hepburn and defensive lineman B.J. McBryde.
Hill measures in at 6-feet-4, 283 pounds.
He went undrafted in the 2015 NFL Draft.
He also went unsigned until now but he did spend some time with the Arizona Cardinals as a tryout player during their three-day rookie minicamp.
Hill started at the defensive end position for the Rams, and in his two-year career totaled 57 tackles, 27 tackles for losses, 13.5 sacks, two forced fumbles and two interceptions.
