The Eagles announced on Thursday that the team has signed RB Jaydon Blue, G Evan Neal, and LB Anfernee Orji to the practice squad. Tight end E.J. Jenkins was waived from the active roster.

### Eagles sign RB Jaydon Blue to the practice squad

Blue (No. 30) returns to the Eagles practice squad after being released from the active roster earlier this week. The running back signed with the Eagles' practice squad before the start of the season and was signed to the active roster ahead of Week 6.

Selected by the Dallas Cowboys in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft out of Texas, Blue appeared in five games for Dallas in his rookie season, recording 129 rushing yards on 34 attempts and a touchdown. The former Longhorn was waived by the Cowboys as part of the final roster cuts.

Blue ran a 4.38 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine following a senior collegiate season which saw the 5-foot-9 running back rush for 730 yards, 8 touchdowns, and average 5.4 yards per carry. In addition, Blue caught six touchdowns through the air in his final season at Texas.

Selected seventh overall by the Giants in the 2022 NFL Draft, the former College Football Playoffs National Champion was released as part of New York's final roster cuts this season. Neal then signed with the Raiders' practice squad before being released earlier this week.

The fifth-year offensive lineman started his career in the NFL as a tackle and converted to the guard position during the 2025 offseason. During his three years at the University of Alabama (2019-21), Neal earned Consensus All-American honors as well as first-team All-SEC.
