Overview

  • Philadelphia re-signed Ife Adeyi on July 29 after waiving him in early June to clear a roster spot for Keilan Robinson.
  • The Eagles waived Danny Gray with an injury designation after he suffered a finger injury in practice.
  • Adeyi, a Sam Houston State product who ran a 4.35-second 40-yard dash at his pro day, offers elite speed and special-teams upside in a deep receiver group.
  • The move underscores Philadelphia’s strategy of cycling undrafted talent during training camp to evaluate long-term potential.
  • Adeyi’s path included workouts with the Falcons and Giants before returning to Philadelphia where he must stand out in practices and preseason games to secure a roster spot.
