Linebacker Jordan Hicks, the Eagles' third-round pick out of Texas, agreed to terms with the Eagles on a four-year rookie deal Thursday. With Hicks' deal complete, the entire Eagles draft class has agreed to terms on their rookie contracts.

Hicks appeared in 45 career games at Texas (28 starts) and amassed 299 tackles, including 24 for a loss, 5.5 sacks, two interceptions, seven pass breakups, 12 special teams tackles and one fumble recovery. In 2014, Hicks was named a semifinalist for the Chuck Bednarik Award, given annually to the nation's top defensive player. !
