The Philadelphia Eagles and defensive tackle Cullen Jenkins have agreed on a restructured contract that will keep the productive former Green Bay Packer with the Eagles.

The contract was originally designed to allow a one-year "trial" between the Eagles and Jenkins, whose market was limited due to the lockout last season.  The deal had a large roster bonus and salary in the second year of the deal, which was scheduled to run through 2015.

After a year where Jenkins was extremely productive for the Eagles and both sides seemed happy with the relationship, the deal was restructured to allow the relationship to continue.
