Eagles Sign Former Cowboy Will Grier, Bolstering Quarterback Depth

The one-year contract with Grier aims to enhance the team's offensive strategy with his extensive practice squad experience.

The Philadelphia Eagles have signed former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Will Grier to a one-year contract, enhancing their quarterback depth behind starter Jalen Hurts.
Grier, 28, has not played in a regular-season game since his rookie year in 2019 but has extensive experience on practice squads, including stops with the Cincinnati Bengals, New England Patriots, and Los Angeles Chargers.
The Eagles' quarterback room now includes Jalen Hurts, Kenny Pickett, and Tanner McKee, with Grier positioned as the fourth option on the depth chart.
Grier's signing follows the Eagles' recent acquisition of Kenny Pickett from the Pittsburgh Steelers, solidifying their backup quarterback position.
Grier's experience with Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore and quarterbacks coach Doug Nussmeier from their time together in Dallas is seen as valuable for adapting to the team's offensive system.
