Eagles to waive QB Carson Strong

The Philadelphia Eagles are cutting undrafted free agent quarterback Carson Strong

The Eagles invested heavily in Carson Strong after the draft, and on Tuesday, the organization will cut its losses as the team is waiving the former Nevada star per Jonathan Jones.

Signed as a high-profile undrafted free agent, Strong’s contract included $320,000 guaranteed after he threw for over 4,000 yards with 36 touchdowns at Nevada in 2021.

A highly sought-out pocket passer, Strong barely saw action during joint practices or preseason games, and on Saturday and his most extensive playing time of the summer, Strong logged seven snaps and completed 1 of 3 passes for 6 yards.

During the entire summer, Strong saw just 15 snaps with just four passing attempts after having a reputation for being a gunslinger.

Stock up, stock down following Eagles preseason loss to the Dolphins

Stock up, stock down following Philadelphia Eagles preseason loss to the Miami Dolphins

The Eagles wrapped up their 2022 preseason on the road with a 48-10 loss to the Dolphins on Saturday evening in Miami Gardens.

The following 48 hours will be spent trimming the roster down to 53 players by the 4 p.m. deadline on Tuesday before preparing for the season opener in Detroit. Philadelphia sat their starters, choosing to feature undrafted free agents and veterans sitting on the roster bubble.

With several moves set to be made, here’s our final stock report of the preseason.

Eagles trade J.J. Arcega-Whiteside to the Seahawks for safety Ugo Amadi

The J.J. Arcega-Whiteside era is over in Philadelphia as the Eagles have traded the 2019 second-round pick.

The J.J. Arcega-Whiteside era is over in Philadelphia, as the Eagles are trading the former wide receiver turned tight end.

The Eagles’ second-round pick in 2019 has just 16 catches for 290 yards and one touchdown entering his fourth NFL season and was targeted only five times last season, catching two passes for 36 yards.

With the writing already on the wall, Arcega-Whiteside switched positions to tight end in the offseason after gaining about 25-pounds. During his preseason debut, Arcega-Whiteside dropped his only target on the night and has spent most of the training camp dealing with various injuries.

Now he’ll move on to Seattle with an opportunity to make the roster at multiple positions.

2022 NFL free agency: Potential Eagles target Chris Godwin expected to remain with Bucs

2022 #NFL #freeagency: Potential #Philadelphia #Eagles target #ChrisGodwin will either be tagged or sign a long-term deal with the #Buccaneers

One of the top wide receivers set to hit the open market will be remaining with his current team for at least the next calendar year. According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Media, the Buccaneers will either place the franchise tag on wide receiver Chris Godwin or reach a new deal with the injured star.

Because the franchise tag puts Godwin among the five highest-paid players at his position, his salary for the 2022 season will cost the Bucs roughly $19.18 million after paying him $15.98 million to play under the franchise tag last season.

Godwin is coming off a 1,103-yard receiving season despite missing the final three games with a torn ACL and MCL, which he underwent surgery to repair on Jan. 3, and he’s logged 1,000-yard seasons catching passes from both Tom Brady and Jameis Winston.

2022 NFL free agency: Potential Eagles target Jessie Bates tagged by the Bengals

2022 #NFL #freeagency: Potential #Eagles target #JessieBates tagged by the #Bengals

One of the top safeties set to hit the open market will be remaining with his current team for at least the next calendar year. According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Media, the Bengals have placed the franchise tag on star safety Jessie Bates.

Because the franchise tag puts Bates among the five highest-paid players at his position, his salary for the 2022 season will be $13.5 million minimum.

Bates, 25, has been a starter for the Bengals since being selected in the second round of the 2018 NFL Draft. In 63 career regular-season games, Bates has logged 408 tackles, 35 pass defenses, two forced fumbles, and 10 interceptions.

This past postseason, Bates led all players with six passes defended and earned the highest Pro Football Focus grade (88.1) among safeties.

7 moves the Eagles can make to create $38 million in cap space for 2022

#Philadelphia will already have about $24 million in cap space at the start of the #NFL’s new league year, and here are seven more moves the #Eagles can make to create almost $38 million in cap space for 2022

The NFL recently confirmed that the salary cap will rise to $208 million this spring, after the league and NFLPA previously set the salary cap for the 2021 season at $182.5 million but agreed back in May to raise the floor in 2022, and again in 2023.

With the Carson Wentz dead money and several other huge deals coming off the books, here’s how the Eagles can create even more cap space for 2022, with these seven simple moves that won’t disrupt the roster.

Using Over The Caps’ salary simulator, Philadelphia could be sitting pretty in a few weeks.

13 reasons why Eagles GM will look to trade a 2022 first-round pick for more draft assets in 2023

After hearing his end of the year press conference, here are 13 reasons why #Eagles GM Howie #Roseman will look to trade a 2022 first-round pick for more #NFLDraft assets in 2023

During the 2021 NFL offseason, Howie Roseman was able to trade Carson Wentz and land a pre-draft deal with the Dolphins, resulting in three first-round picks in the 2022 NFL Draft, but after listening to his end of the season press conference, Philadelphia’s top decision-maker could have something even more brazen up his sleeves.

The Eagles are technically still in the midst of a rebuild and although they made the postseason, last year was still supposed to be about seeing what they had at quarterback and other key positions.

That press conference, coupled with a lack of star power in the upcoming draft is why the evaluation will continue,  giving Hurts another year as the starter,  but could Roseman move one of his coveted 2022 assets in hopes of greener pastures in 2023?

If Roseman still has dreams of a more conventional superstar passer or a once-in-a-lifetime pass rusher, the 2023 draft could offer at minimum, seven quarterbacks for Philadelphia and other teams to start targeting.

If Philadelphia dreams of an all-world pass-rusher or stud wide receiver, an extra first-round pick would be gold.

Here are some of the top 2023 signal-callers, a star running back, and one all-world edge rusher that could have Roseman waiting patiently for that greener pasture.
