Former @UVAFootball standout Rodney McLeod (2008-11) re-signed with the @Eagles this week with a two-year deal. McLeod has been with the Eagles since 2016 after spending his first four years in the NFL with the St. Louis Rams (2012-15). McLeod, a member of the Eagles’ Super Bowl LII winner, started all 16 games in 2019 and recorded 108 total tackles and 10 passes defended. McLeod is the last Cavalier to intercept three passes in a game, doing so at Maryland in 2011, sharing the UVA single-game record with six other Cavaliers. Check out his highlight reel in the tweet above.
