The Eagles open a roster spot by waiving Kenyon Green as they push for a stronger edge presence after Za’Darius Smith signing last Friday. Early returns on the team’s pass rush looked tepid in the season opener, so Smith’s addition is a clear upgrade bet that should sharpen Philadelphia’s pressure packages in Week 2 against Kansas City.

Concurrent moves reshape the RB picture as Saquon Barkley’s New York Giants loom in Week 2 and Will Shipley suffers a rib injury. Audric Estime was added to the practice squad as a potential internal option, while Ben VanSumeren landed on IR after a season-ending knee injury. The Texans-Gardner-Johnson swap helped financials and opened guard competition with Tyler Steen in the mix for a starting spot.

Eagles sign 14 players to the practice squad ahead of Week 1, aiming to fortify depth for a Week 1 showdown with the Cowboys.

Charley Hughlett joins the active roster; Willie Lampkin was claimed off waivers; the rest of the squad covers LB, WR, OL, TE, CB, and S, signaling a calculated depth push for a crowded early schedule.

Notable names include Chance Campbell, Elijah Cooks, Kenyon Green, E.J. Jenkins, Brandon Johnson, Patrick Johnson, Terrace Marshall Jr., Kyle McCord, Parry Nickerson, Eli Ricks, and Andre Sam, among others, as potential breakout or practice-squad-to-spot-play options as the season unfolds.
