The Sports Network

The Philadelphia Eagles re-signed long snapper Jon Dorenbos and safety/special teams standout Colt Anderson, the team announced on Monday.

Dorenbos, who was set to become an unrestricted free agent, signed a four- year deal with the team, while Anderson inked a one-year pact.

Dorenbos originally singed with Philadelphia during the 2006 season, and has served as the team's long snapper ever since.

Anderson joined the Eagles during the 2010 campaign after serving on Minnesota's practice squad. He has recorded 30 special teams tackles in 34 career games.

Over 14 games -- four starts -- in 2012, Anderson tallied 33 tackles and recorded his first career interception in a Week 16 loss to Washington.
