Eagles elevate DT T.Y. McGill and G Sua Opeta from the practice squad to the active roster for game vs. Washington

The Philadelphia Eagles have activated T.Y. McGill and guard Sua Opeta up from the practice squad to the active roster after the team ruled out defensive end Derek Barnett for the season opener at Washington.

After going undrafted in 2019, Opeta was signed by the Philadelphia Eagles for training camp. Opeta spent the first 12 weeks on the practice squad before being placed on the active roster in December.

A big physical defensive tackle, McGill is on his second stint with the Eagles and recorded three tackles in two games with the team during the 2018 season before spending the past two seasons with the Chargers.
