Eagles’ Depth Moves and QB Uncertainty | NFL News

0:00It's September 2nd. From breaking news to Sunday matchups, this is NFL News Today, powered by AI. The Eagles are rolling with four quarterbacks on their initial 53 man roster, a move that hasn't happened in the modern era. They also kept a deep group at receiver with six guys and four tight ends, plus six corner backs, but only three safeties. It seems like they really valued depth this year, especially since other teams picked up four players they waved. No manager how he rose, man definitely had some tough calls to make, and not every decision got top marks. Keeping four quarterbacks, for instance, is seen as a C-grade move because it leaves the back of QB situation unclear, with Tanner McKee and Andy. Dalton still seemingly in a battle for that second spot. They might even be looking outside the current roster for that role. The decision to go with EJ Jenkins over Cam Latsu, at tight end, gets a B-. Jenkins might not have a ton of game experience. But he's a better blocker and a red zone thread, which the team needs.

1:00With Grant Calcuttaire injured, Jenkins gets a chance to prove his worth, though an upgrade like Zach Irts could still be on the horizon. On the flip side, Elijah Moore making the roster as the sixth wide receiver is an A-grade move. He showed he could make plays during camp and provides much needed depth. Roseman highlighted Moore's ability to separate and catch everything, making him a reliable option for the early part of the season. Playing in a national player, Joshua Wehru and U-R Bernard for waiver claims is an A-plus. It was a smart move to prioritize keeping players who could contribute immediately rather than letting them essentially wretch her for the season. Especially with needs at other positions. Mack McGullium also landed the sixth cornerback spot, a B-grade, as he was the best of a less experienced group, and offers value on special teams.
