List of Philadelphia Eagles free agents who remain unsigned
The Eagles entered the 2022 NFL free agency period with 14 players who were available to sign elsewhere, and that didn’t include a decision from Jason Kelce on his future.
Philadelphia made one splash move by signing Haason Reddick and then made a solid value signing by adding Kyzir White.
With the draft and offseason workout just weeks away, here are the Eagles’ remaining free agents.
With the #NFL offseason set to begin in a few weeks, we’re predicting the fate of #Philadelphia #Eagles’ key pending free agents in 2022
The NFL’s new league year is less than a month away, and as the Eagles continue their sped-up retool, Howie Roseman will likely let some big named veterans walk via free agency.
Philadelphia will enter free agency with 9 unrestricted free agents, 4 unrestricted free agents, and one exclusive rights free agent in Andre Chachere.
The Eagles will enter the NFL’s free-agent period with $12 million in cap space, and the potential to add another $12 million with Brandon Brooks retiring and several potential contract restructures.
We’re predicting which 2022 Eagles free agents will be moving on.
With #SBLVI now just a week away and the offseason officially set to start, we’re predicting which #Philadelphia #Eagles 2022 unrestricted #NFL #freeagents should stay or go #FlyEaglesFly
NFL Free agency is just over a month away, and after an interesting week at the Senior Bowl, it’s now time for Eagles GM Howie Roseman to start his due diligence on league veterans and NFL free agency.
Philadelphia is slated to have almost $25 million in available cap space — before any trades, releases, or restructures — and several roster spots to address from the standpoint of an upgrade.
We’re predicting whether 9 Eagles’ unrestricted free agents will be back with the team or departing in free agency.
Former Vol Jason Croom placed on injured reserve.
The Eagles have placed tight end Jason Croom on injured reserve.
Croom was carted off the field during Philadelphia’s preseason, 35-0, loss to New England, suffering a knee injury.
He played for the Vols between 2012-16 under head coaches Derek Dooley and Butch Jones.
During his first three years at Tennessee, Croom played wide receiver. He played tight end during his final season on Rocky Top.
Croom recorded 60 receptions during his collegiate career and scored six touchdowns for the Vols.
He entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent, signing with the Buffalo Bills in 2017.
The former Vol played for Buffalo until being cut on Sept. 5, 2020. The Eagles signed him a short time later.
In his NFL career, Croom has recorded 23 receptions for 262 yards and two touchdowns.

Eagles fear TE Jason Croom suffered a season-ending knee injury
#Eagles TE Jason Croom, who was carted off early last night, is feared to have suffered a season-ending knee injury, source said. He’s having an MRI to confirm. A potential hit to TE depth.
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) August 20, 2021
The Eagles were already without Tyree Jackson for almost three months, and now according to Ian Rapoport, tight end Jason Croom will likely miss the entire 2021 NFL season with a knee injury.
Croom left Philadelphia’s preseason game against the Patriots after suffering a non-contact knee injury that required him to be carted off.
Croom and Tyree Jackson’s injury could provide an outlet for Jack Stoll to make the team as a tight end. The Eagles already have Zach Ertz, Dallas Goedert, and Richard Rodgers, so it’s a long shot.

Former Tennessee football player Jason Croom now on Eagles’ active roster.
The Philadelphia Eagles have signed former University of Tennessee football player Jason Croom from their practice squad.
Croom, a tight end, was placed on Philadelphia’s active roster Friday afternoon. The Eagles are looking for depth on its 2020 season finale against the Washington Football Team Sunday.
Croom’s addition to the roster assures that he will be on the team’s roster during the offseason.
He has played in four games this season, while being on the receiving end of a touchdown pass.
The Eagles (4-10-1) are the only team in the NFC East that has been eliminated from postseason contention despite the fact that all of the division’s other teams will finish the 2020 campaign with below .500 records.
Washington, Dallas and the New York Giants are all vying for one of the NFC’s final playoff spots.
Croom, a Norcross, Georgia native, began the season on the Buffalo Bills’ practice squad. He played with the Bills between 2017-20.
He has 23 career receptions for 262 yards and two touchdowns after entering the league as an undrafted free agent.
Croom played for the Volunteers between 2013-16. He began his collegiate career on Rocky Top as a wide receiver before moving to tight end as a senior.
At UT, Croom recorded 60 receptions including six touchdowns.
Eagles sign TE Jason Croom off of the practice squad to the active roster game vs. Washington

With Dallas Goedert unlikely to play in the season finale, the Philadelphia Eagles are reportedly signing tight end Jason Croom, to the active roster off of the practice squad.
Croom was originally signed by the Eagles to their practice squad on September 29.
Croom was elevated twice from the practice squad ahead of the Steelers and Ravens games, turning his lone reception into a touchdown against Baltimore.
He was signed to the active roster on October 21 and played 10 more snaps on offense in the wins over the Giants and Cowboys.
Goedert left Sunday’s loss to Dallas with an injury and with Richard Rodgers dealing with an injury, Caleb Wilson could get the callup as well.
