Three cut players around the NFL who could interest the Eagles

The Philadelphia Eagles, possessing one of the NFL's strongest rosters and holding the last waiver priority, are unlikely to make numerous waiver claims. However, General Manager Howie Roseman is known for seeking marginal roster improvements and may target players who could upgrade the team's depth.

Potential waiver targets are not expected to be starters but could fill minor roles or serve as developmental projects. One such player is cornerback JuJu Brents, a former second-round pick by the Colts in 2023 who has struggled with injuries. Brents previously visited Philadelphia pre-draft alongside several players who were later drafted by the Eagles, making him a plausible reclamation project.

Another candidate is return specialist Britain Covey, who excelled as a punt returner in 2023 but saw limited play in 2024 due to a neck injury. After being released by the Rams, he could interest the Eagles—particularly for their practice squad—as current return options like Cooper DeJean or Jahan Dotson are either preferred in other roles or lack elite return ability.
