The Philadelphia Eagles are less than one week away from a season-opening showdown in D.C. against Chase Young and the Washington Football Team.
With training camp over and several notable changes to the roster, here’s our final 53 man roster projection with two extra players added because the Birds technically can elevate two practice squad players per week, basically carrying 55 if they so choose.
***
QB – 3 — Carson Wentz, Jalen Hurts, Nate Sudfeld
Sudfeld was the unquestioned backup but Hurts looked sharp at times during training camp. It wouldn’t be a shock if the Eagles moved on from Sudfeld, but if he makes the team he’ll be the backup one week from now.
***
RB – 3 — Boston Scott, Corey Clement, Miles Sanders
The Eagles appeared prepared to enter the 2020 NFL season with two holdovers from last season and a refurbished Corey Clement, but it appears only three running backs will make the cut.
Look for the undrafted rookie Adrian Killins to find a role on the expanded practice squad after being a part of the first round of cuts.
