The Philadelphia Eagles got another deal done...
The Philadelphia Eagles have been moving things around with the roster to maximize flexibility heading into the team's Week 18 matchup against the Washington Commanders. Philadelphia announced on Monday that it was releasing veteran long snapper Charley Hughlett after appearing in seven games with the team this season.
In response, speculation popped up on social media about the idea of potentially poaching Cal Adomitis off the Aug 22, 2025; East Rutherford, New Jersey, USA; Philadelphia Eagles place kicker Jake Elliott celebrates a field goal with long snapper Charley Hughlett during the first half against the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium.

"The Eagles welcomed back long snapper Charley Hughlett to the practice squad on New Year's Eve," the Eagles announced. "Hughlett was waived by the team on Monday and cleared waivers, paving the road for him to return to the practice squad. Hughlett has served as the long snapper in seven games this season for the Eagles, all wins. Signed to a one-year deal in the offseason, Hughlett was the long snapper for the first four games before landing on Injured Reserve with an abdominal injury. He came back for the last three games. "Hughlett joined the Eagles after 10 seasons with the Cleveland Browns, where he was a team captain. In Sunday's win over the Bills, Hughlett served as the long snapper for Jake Elliott's two field goals and extra point attempt, allowing the kicker to become just the second Eagle to surpass 1,000 career points. Punter Braden Mann averaged 55.4 yards on seven punts." What a wild week for the veteran long snapper. The 35-year-old has played in seven games with the Eagles this season, including the last three in a row. So, Philadelphia isn't making a change at long snapper for now, but found a way to maximize roster space in the meantime by cutting Hughlett and bringing him back to the practice squad.Patrick McAvoy's experiences include local and national sports coverage at the New England Sports Network with a focus on baseball and basketball.
