Overview

  • Philadelphia signed undrafted rookie wide receiver Ife Adeyi on July 29 and freed a roster spot by waiving Danny Gray, who was sidelined by a finger injury.
  • Adeyi ran a 4.35-second 40-yard dash and caught 164 passes for 2,312 yards and 19 touchdowns at Sam Houston State before going undrafted.
  • After tryouts with the Falcons and Giants this month, Adeyi returns to compete against a dozen receivers in the Eagles’ 90-man training camp roster.
  • The one-for-one swap maintains depth in Philadelphia’s receiver corps as DeVonta Smith, Danny Gray and Terrace Marshall Jr. have all missed practice time.
  • Eagles coaches will evaluate Adeyi’s speed and special-teams potential in practices and preseason games as he vies for a long-shot roster spot.
