The Philadelphia Eagles have made two roster moves ahead of their Week 3 road game against the New Orleans Saints. Here’s a summary:
WR Parris Campbell and TE Jack Stoll have been temporarily elevated from the practice squad.
Teams are allowed to temporarily promote practice squad players up to three times each in the regular season and an unlimited number of times in the postseason.
Let’s look at these roster changes on a player-by-player basis.
PARRIS CAMPBELL
With A.J. Brown unavailable, Campbell is being elevated by the Eagles to add more depth at wide receiver. Campbell saw limited action in the Eagles’ Week 2 game, playing 15 offensive snaps with no targets. He is expected to be the fifth-most used wide receiver in New Orleans.
JACK STOLL
Stoll is being chosen over E.J. Jenkins, who was temporarily elevated in the Eagles’ first two games. Stoll is known for his blocking abilities while Jenkins is more of a pass-catching threat. Stoll will be the third tight end behind Dallas Goedert and Grant Calcaterra.
MOVES NOT MADE
The Eagles did not elevate a safety from the practice squad, suggesting that C.J. Gardner-Johnson may be able to play. Despite missing practice on Thursday and Friday, CJGJ is listed as questionable. It has been reported that his injury is not serious. Game day inactives will be announced at 11:30 AM Eastern on Sunday, providing further updates on his status.
