A player-for-player NFL deal!

The Eagles have traded fullback Stanley Havili to the Colts for defensive lineman Clifton Geathers, the Eagles announced Thursday.

The Eagles drafted Havili in the seventh round in 2011. At the time, now-Colts general manager Ryan Grigson was the club’s director of player personnel. The Eagles are making a major schematic switch on offense under new head coach Chip Kelly.

Havili played 15 games for the Eagles in 2012, starting two. He rushed for 22 yards and one score on six carries and caught 7-43-0. He spent the 2011 season on the practice squad.

The 6-7, 325-pound Geathers appeared in eight games for Indianapolis in 2012, notching five tackles. He projects as an end in a 3-4 scheme. In addition to his time with the Colts, he previously had stints with the Browns, Dolphins, Seahawks and Cowboys.
