2021 Eagles’ roster cuts: Luke Juriga among three waived Tuesday

With Nate Herbig rapidly improving, center Luke Juriga was among three players waived on Tuesday ahead of the deadline.

The first of three roster cuts that NFL teams are required to make, Juriga joined Kerryon Johnson on waivers as Philadelphia worked to get down to 85.

Tuesday, August 17: Down to 85.
Tuesday, August 24: Down to 80.
Tuesday, August 31: Down to 53.

Juriga getting cut means Kayode Awosika still has an outside shot at making the roster.

2021 Eagles’ roster cuts: Kerryon Johnson among three waived Tuesday

Jordan Howard’s chances of making the Eagles roster improved after Philadelphia waived running back Kerryon Johnson along with three others.

Johnson was listed as week-to-week with a knee injury and could end up on injured reserve if he goes through waivers unclaimed.

A former second-round pick of the Lions, the vastly talented Johnson has battled knee injuries since his explosive rookie season.
