Overview
- Analysts project a 53‑man group with three quarterbacks and say the Eagles are likely to try to trade either Tanner McKee or Andy Dalton before final cutdowns.
- The running back room is forecast at three players: Saquon Barkley, Tank Bigsby and Will Shipley after Dameon Pierce was sidelined by an injury.
- The projection lists six receivers, keeping Marquise Brown despite a tepid camp largely because of his past tape and roughly $5 million in guaranteed money.
- Rookie long snapper Rocco Underwood has struggled this summer and the team may sign a veteran long snapper after roster cutdowns if the issue persists.
- Injuries to Jonathan Jones and a monitored status for Jonathan Greenard have tightened depth at corner and edge roles and have influenced coach Vic Fangio’s roster preferences.
