On Saturday, guard Trevor Keegan, the team's fifth-round pick (172nd overall) out of Michigan, inked his four-year rookie contract.

Here are five things to know about Keegan:

1. Trevor Keegan was the No. 1 high school recruit in the state of Illinois as a senior. His mother, Amanda, grew up in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

"I think Michigan alone sets itself apart from everyone else. Especially with (former Michigan head) Coach (Jim) Harbaugh there," said Keegan. "We had an NFL-type schedule. It was a business. When you're there at Michigan you get the coaching, you get the training. It's a first-class program that we had. Our coaches did a great job preparing us. I feel like our scheme is an NFL scheme and it made my job very easy learning installs on these Zooms and things like that.

"Very similar communication and calls, so I think Michigan just sets you apart. Like you said, the competition, we played everybody. I've been able to play Alabama, Georgia, Ohio State, Penn State. Really excited for this opportunity and I know these guys are all freaks in the NFL and continue to work my butt off. I'm just really excited for this opportunity. I can't wait to be in Philly."

2. Keegan was one of the "red star" players identified by the Eagles' personnel staff in the pre-draft process.

Said Director of Player Personnel Alan Wolking:"He's smart and TOUGH. He's more of the mauler type. He's going to stand in close quarters and he's going to fight you on every rep. Michigan football has a brand, and he's a big part of that brand. So, a lot of the play style elements of his game are things we like here. I think the fans are getting someone who is very much in line with our play style – 'We're going to stay in here and we're going to fight until the whistle and it's going to be like that for every rep.' He'll fit in. Broadly, if you look at this group in general, all of these guys are at the top of our scale for football character, for toughness, for football instincts, and all of that. These guys were captains. They were great teammates. It was prevalent in all of their profiles."

3. Keegan was a senior captain on the 2023 Michigan team that won the National Championship. Keegan was also a three-year starter on an offensive line that won the Joe Moore Award as the top line in college football in back-to-back seasons (2021-22).

4. Keegan was wearing a DeSean Jackson jersey during his introductory video conference call with reporters shortly after being drafted in the fifth round.

5. The two-time All-Big Ten guard was penalized just six times over 2,200+ snaps in his college career. He allowed just three sacks in 44 career games and none in 2023.
