Eagles Trim Roster, Cut Two Undrafted SEC Rookies

The moves free roster spots after Elijah Mitchell’s injury, reflecting how camp performance is shaping the team’s preseason depth.

Overview

  • The Eagles released tight end Dae’Quan Wright and offensive guard Jaeden Roberts in a set of roster moves announced Monday.
  • The team placed running back Elijah Mitchell on injured reserve and later reached an injury settlement that removed him from IR.
  • Philadelphia signed running back Ja’Quinden Jackson, edge player Tarron Jackson, and defensive tackle David Blay to replenish depth after Mitchell’s injury.
  • Wright and Roberts were undrafted rookies from SEC programs whose limited impact in training camp reduced their chances of making the 53-man roster.
  • The quick claiming of released players shows normal preseason churn and how injuries, camp performance, and roster limits cause rapid player movement across the league.
