Saverio Rocca has signed as a National Football League punter with Philadelphia Eagles, the Philadelphia Inquirer has reported.
An Eagles spokesman confirmed earlier this week that Rocca had agreed terms on a standard, non-guaranteed three-year contract, with the intention of learning to punt in the NFL, but the deal was only announced today after the club had received Rocca's contract.
The former Collingwood and Kangaroos forward, who retired from the AFL last year, after 15 seasons, will be in competition for the Eagles punting job with veteran Dirk Johnson, who struggled early last season after signing a six-year contract extension in late August.
