Trotter is back with the Eagles.

He agreed to a one-year contract his deal is contingent upon his passing a physical on July 15. Trotter, 27, spent the past two seasons with the Washington Redskins after playing four years for the Eagles and making the Pro Bowl twice. He left Philadelphia following a bitter contract dispute in 2002, but never lived up to the seven-year contract he received from the Redskins. Trotter's role is uncertain. Mark Simoneau is listed as Philadelphia's starting middle linebacker, with Dhani Jones and Nate Wayne at the other two starting spots. Trotter led Washington with 129 tackles in 16 games last season. He had 104 tackles in 12 games in 2002, before going down with a knee injury. Trotter has 774 tackles, 10½ sacks and four forced fumbles in his six-year career.
