PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The Philadelphia Eagles have acquired rookie kicker Cody Parkey from the Indianapolis Colts for running back David Fluellen.
The Eagles initially announced they had released Fluellen on Wednesday before trading him to the Colts. The undrafted rookie from Toledo had six carries for 25 yards and caught one touchdown pass in the first preseason game.
He rushed for 3,336 yards and 28 touchdowns in four college seasons.
Parkey made 14 of 19 field goals, 62 of 63 extra points and ranked first in the nation with 69 touchbacks as a senior at Auburn. He made both of his field goals in the preseason. Alex Henery is Philadelphia’s No. 1 kicker.
