The Eagles are bringing in a linebacker who knows their defense.

Nigel Bradham, who has spent his first four NFL seasons with the Bills, has signed with the Eagles, the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Bradham had his best season in 2014, when Jim Schwartz was the Bills’ defensive coordinator. Schwartz is now the defensive coordinator of the Eagles.

A 2012 fourth-round pick out of Florida State, Bradham started 38 games for the Bills in four seasons, including 11 games last season.

UPDATE 7:33 p.m. ET: Schwartz is getting the band back together, as the Eagles have also signed former Bills cornerback Ron Brooks.
