Eagles Cut 35 Players, Set 53-Man Roster
The defending champs have set their initial 53-man roster. The Eagles announced the following moves:
Released:
- LS Charley Hughlett
- LB Patrick Johnson
- OT Kendall Lamm
- WR Terrace Marshall
- CB Parry Nickerson
- WR Avery Williams
Waived:
- WR Ife Adeyi
- LB Chance Campbell
- WR Elijah Cooks
- LB Lance Dixon
- DT Joe Evans
- LB Dallas Gant
- G Kenyon Green
- S Maxen Hook
- TE E.J. Jenkins
- CB Brandon Johnson
- RB Montrell Johnson
- TE Cameron Latu
- LB Ochaun Mathis
- QB Kyle McCord
- WR Taylor Morin
- TE Nick Muse
- OT Hollin Pierce
- RB ShunDerrick Powell
- LB Antwaun Powell-Ryland
- CB Eli Ricks
- DE Jereme Robinson
- RB Keilan Robinson
- DT Justin Rogers
- S Andre Sam
- WR Ainias Smith
- DT Jacob Sykes
- OT Laekin Vakalahi
- CB AJ Woods
Waived/injured:
Placed on reserve/PUP:
- LB Nakobe Dean
Placed on IR (designated for return):
- OT Myles Hinton
Nakobe Dean is out until at least Week 4 as he continues to recover from a torn patellar tendon suffered during Philly’s playoff win over the Packers. The impending free agent is coming off his most productive NFL season. The former third-round pick finished the 2024 campaign having started all 15 of his appearances while compiling 128 tackles and three sacks.
Meanwhile, the Eagles moved on from a pair of notable offseason acquisitions. Kendall Lamm started 15 of his 32 appearances for the Dolphins over the past two years, and he was expected to provide the Eagles with some OT depth. Instead, the 33-year-old will look to continue his career elsewhere. The team also moved on from former second-round WR Terrace Marshall. The LSU product topped out at 490 yards during his three-year stint with the Panthers, and he followed that up with a 41-yard showing with the Raiders in 2024.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

- Waived/injured: QB Michael Pratt
Tennessee Titans
- Signed: LB Khaleke Hudson
- Waived: LB David Gbenda
- Waived/injured: Anfernee Orji
Mbaeteka was waived by the Browns on Monday and quickly found a new home in Arizona. The Nigeria native has an international player exemption, per Howard Balzer of CardsWire, allowing the Cardinals to carry 91 players on their preseason roster. The exemption also makes Mbaeteka eligible to be an extra 17th player on the team’s practice squad.
Herndon, 29, will add some defensive back depth to Buffalo’s secondary. Interestingly, the Bills listed Herndon as a safety when they announced his signing, though the seven-year veteran has primarily played both outside and slot cornerback throughout his career.
Price, a 49ers third-round pick in 2022, has only played 105 total snaps in his first three NFL seasons. In Green Bay, he’ll fight for a roster spot in the Packers’ backfield behind Josh Jacobs, Emanuel Wilson, and MarShawn Lloyd.
Asamoah’s release by the Vikings was a bit of a surprise given that the 2022 third-rounder has appeared in 46 games over the last three seasons, primarily as a core special teams contributor. However, he had yet to develop into a reliable defender in Brian Flores‘ scheme and will look to compete for a role elsewhere.
Johnstone’s release signals that offseason signing Charley Hughlett will be the Eagles’ long snapper for the 2025 season.

There was a scary moment at 49ers practice earlier this week, as 49ers defensive lineman Tarron Jackson was carted off the field on a stretcher after suffering a neck injury. Fortunately, the player has since been released from the hospital (per Vic Tafur of The Athletic), but his placement on IR means he won’t suit up during the upcoming campaign. A former Eagles draft pick, Jackson got into three games with the Panthers in 2024 before joining the 49ers practice squad late in the season.

Training camps are underway around the league, bringing more and more roster adjustments every day. Here are the latest minor moves:
Carolina Panthers
- Placed on active/PUP list: WR Dan Chisena, TE Tommy Tremble
- Placed on active/NFI list: P Sam Martin
Dallas Cowboys
- Placed on active/PUP list: CB Josh Butler, CB Trevon Diggs, LB DeMarvion Overshown

Los Angeles Rams
- Signed: QB Dresser Winn
Minnesota Vikings
- Placed on active/PUP: TE Gavin Bartholomew, LB Chaz Chambliss
Seattle Seahawks
- Signed: CB Kam Alexander, DT Justin Rogers
- Waived/NFI: CB Zy Alexander
Martin, a 12-year veteran who signed with the Panthers this offseason, is dealing with a minor hamstring injury, per Joe Person of The Athletic.
The Cowboys’ trio of cornerbacks were all expected to be placed on their respective lists given where they are in the rehab process, according to ESPN’s Todd Archer. The same is true of Overshown, who recently shared a positive update on social media (via Charean Williams of Pro Football Talk).
An eye injury will sideline Hale for several weeks, per Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, forcing the Packers to release him. Hale was not expected to push Brandon McManus for the starting job in Green Bay, but the team will need another kicker for training camp.
The Seahawks swapped undrafted cornerbacks, adding Alexander out of Oregon and waiving Alexander with a non-football injury designation. Rogers, meanwhile, was signed after a successful tryout.
