Eagles cuts: Roster officially down to 53 players

The Philadelphia Eagles officially announced a slew of roster moves ahead of Tuesday afternoon’s 4:00 PM deadline in order to cut down to the regular season 53-player limit.

Here’s an overview of all the action.

The following players were not “waived” because they’re vested veterans (at least four accrued seasons) and are now free to sign with any team.

LS Charley Hughlett

EDGE Patrick Johnson

OT Kendall Lamm

WR Terrace Marshall Jr.

CB Parry Nickerson

WR Avery Williams

The following players are subject to waivers. Those who go unclaimed will be eligible to sign with any team’s roster or practice squad.

WR Ife Adeyi

LB Chance Campbell

CB Tariq Castro-Fields (waived/injured)

INJURED RESERVE/DESIGNATED FOR RETURN

NFL teams used to have to carry players through to their 53-man roster to put them on injured reserve and have them still be eligible to return in the same season. Now teams have up to two designations where they can place a player on IR as part of getting down to 53 players and still be able to activate them after the player misses four games. The Eagles used this maneuver with both Ainias Smith and Albert Okwuegbunam Jr. in 2024.

RESERVE/PHYSICALLY UNABLE TO PERFORM (PUP)

Players who begin the season on reserve/PUP are ineligible to play in the first four games.
