Eagles elevate CB Michael Jacquet from the practice squad to the active roster for game vs. Giants

The Philadelphia Eagles have elevated cornerback Michael Jacquet to the active roster in advance of Sunday’s matchup against the New York Giants.

Jacquet, an undrafted rookie free agent, was called up before the Dallas game in Week 8 and played 30 snaps on defense in his NFL debut. Jacquet was one of the highest-graded rookies in Week 8 and had defensive coordinator singing his praises this week.

Cornerback Craig James, a special teams captain, is out with a shoulder injury.
