Eagles sign WR Julio Jones to 53-man roster ahead of Week 9 matchup vs. Cowboys

After two weeks on the Philadelphia practice squad, the Eagles are signing Julio Jones to the active roster ahead of Week 9 matchup against Dallas Cowboys

Julio Jones is here to stay, signing to the Eagles 53-man roster ahead of Sunday’s huge matchup against the Dallas Cowboys.

The Eagles signed the 13-year veteran to the practice squad on October 17, and he’s quickly made his presence known after two straight weeks of game action.

In two games since arriving in Philadelphia, Jones made two catches for 11 yards and a touchdown.

Jones’s first touchdown as an Eagles came late in the fourth quarter of last week’s win over Washington and gave Philadelphia the lead for good.

Philadelphia also signed tight end E.J. Jenkins to the practice squad.
