Eagles Sign Kenny Moore II to Practice Squad

The move supplies experienced nickel and safety depth with a path for Moore to be elevated to the active roster.

Overview

  • Kenny Moore II agreed to join the Philadelphia Eagles on a practice‑squad arrangement reported Sept. 22, 2026, on a one‑year deal expected to be worth up to $3 million.
  • Philadelphia plans to use Moore as a versatile defender inside the nickel and at safety as he learns Vic Fangio’s scheme and works toward a possible game‑day elevation.
  • Moore is a nine‑season Indianapolis veteran and 2021 Pro Bowl selection who brings a long résumé of slot coverage and tackling production, including 132 career games and 21 interceptions.
  • The signing followed the Eagles losing practice‑squad cornerback Robert Longerbeam to the Atlanta Falcons, illustrating how NFL practice‑squad rules let clubs poach players and force quick roster adjustments.
  • Multiple teams, including the Detroit Lions, checked on Moore during the offseason and early regular season, so his signing closes a brief marketplace chase and removes a veteran option from the Colts’ former roster.
