Cine was Kwesi Adofo-Mensah’s first draft pick as Vikings GM in 2022. He was projected to be a fit in Ed Donatell’s defense, which was part of the Vic Fangio system. Cine didn’t crack the initial starting lineup and was primarily a special teams player before suffering a compound leg fracture in London four games into the season.

The Eagles are adding depth to the secondary ahead of Wild Card weekend, signing Lewis Cine to the active roster. The former Vikings first-round pick and Byron Young were added to the roster, and his practice window was opened.

As if there already weren’t enough Georgia Bulldog defenders in this game, the Philadelphia Eagles announced on Wednesday that they signed former first-round safety Lewis Cine from the Buffalo Bills’ practice squad.
