The re-signed Xavier Gipson to the practice squad, and moved Danny Gray to IR
The Eagles made a change to their wide receiver group ahead of Sunday’s deadline to cut rosters to 90 players. They announced that they have signed Tahj Washington to the active roster. Brandon Hayes was waived in a corresponding move. Washington was a 2024 seventh-round pick by the Dolphins and was with the team until being waived earlier this week. He appeared in six games last season and had three catches for 37 yards. Hayes signed with the Eagles three weeks ago. He was undrafted out of Southeastern Louisiana. DeVonta Smith, Makai Lemon, Dontayvion Wicks, Hollywood Brown, Elijah Moore, Darius Cooper, Britain Covey, Quez Watkins, Danny Gray, Samori Toure, and Erik Ezukanma are also on the roster at receiver

Let’s get to the Philadelphia Eagles news and links … Eagles made play for Myles Garrett, but Browns wanted Jalen Carter – PFT On Monday morning, before the Browns traded defensive end Myles Garrett to the Rams, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer flagged the Rams, Cowboys, and Eagles as potential destinations. Multiple reports have indicated that the Browns wanted defensive tackle Jalen Carter from the Eagles, but that the Eagles weren’t interested in that. Via Jeff Kerr of SI.com, the Eagles offered Nolan Smith or Jalyx Hunt instead . The Eagles’ insistence on keeping Carter is a bit confusing, given that the forward-looking Eagles have yet to sign Carter to a second contract. In March, after the Eagles signed defensive tackle Jordan Davis to a new deal, it was leaked that they have gotten calls about Carter , which often is part of a strategy aimed at getting more. Eagles practice notes: Andy Dalton is QB2? – BGN BACKUP QUARTERBACK CONTROVERSY? Or maybe there’s no controversy after all and it’s just been decided that Andy Dalton is Hurts’ primary backup instead of Tanner McKee ? Plenty of offseason left to go but, for the second media-attended practice in a row, Dalton was the quarterback with the second-team offense. And unlike how he stunk last week, the 38-year-old veteran was much sharper today. Dalton made a good anticipation throw up the seam to hit E.J. Jenkins for a first down. Then he completed two passes to receivers on out routes along the left sideline. Dalton found Elijah Moore , who sat down in a soft spot in the defense, for another first down. He capped off a strong day at practice with a strike to Hollywood Brown in the back of the end zone during a goal line sequence. Tanner McKee’s limited reps included him hitting a flyswatter dummy, a short pass broken up by undrafted rookie Kapena Gushiken, a wormburner over the middle, and a short touchdown pass to Danny Gray . Maybe we’ll see more of a rotation at QB2 moving forward … but what if Dalton is just the guy at QB2? Something we’ll continue to monitor. Eagles OTA practice notes: Offense starts slow, but eventually makes some plays – PhillyVoice With A.J. Brown gone, Hurts is going to lean on Smith and Goedert. They both had catches over the intermediate-middle of the field from Hurts. Prediction: Smith will lead the team in targets this season by a mile. Assuming he is able to stay on the field, I wouldn’t be surprised if Smith had like 40 or 50 more targets than the next closest guy. Eagles trade A.J. Brown to the Patriots: Five instant thoughts on Howie Roseman’s blockbuster deal – PHLY How the Eagles proceed. In trading for Dontayvion Wicks , drafting Makai Lemon in the first-round of the NFL Draft and signing both Hollywood Brown and Elijah Moore, the Eagles have already spent most of this offseason planning for life without Brown. But have they done enough? Even for those bullish on Lemon hitting the ground running as a rookie or Wicks flourishing in a more featured role, it’s hard to argue that the team’s receiving corps won’t take a significant step back without Brown as a key cog in the machine. Even going off his worst year with the team, the Eagles have 80 receptions and 1,000 yards to compensate for just to maintain the uninspiring production last year’s group managed. Of Brown’s 80 catches (121 targets may be the better way to look at it), DeVonta Smith will likely be the primary beneficiary. The Eagles have been bullish on Smith this offseason and there’s some belief internally that taking on a more featured role as the clear No. 1 in Sean Mannion’s offense will close the gap between him and receivers like Jaxon Smith-Njigba or Puka Nacua . Smith had 113 targets, 77 catches and 1,008 yards last season; what would his production look like if he was closer to the 150-target mark without Brown? And even if Lemon and Wicks have best-case scenario production, the most likely factor to compensate for Brown’s departure — aside from a pot [... truncated ...]
