While young players battle for roster spots this weekend, several veteran players are on edge because they could be on the way out.
Nick Sirianni was an assistant coach with the Chargers in 2017 when Austin Ekeler made the team following a strong performance in the final preseason game.Sirianni, who is entering his fourth season as the Eagles head coach, used clips from Ekeler to motivate players going into Philadelphia’s preseason finale last year.“Yeah, we’ll probably do something similar to that,” Sirianni said Wednesday.
He eventually worked up to a starting role and had 38 touchdowns rushing and receiving in 2021-22. The Commanders gave him a two-year, $11.4 million contract in free agency. But Toney couldn’t build off that success. He struggled last season and was inactive from Week 15 through the playoffs and sat out Kansas City’s Super Bowl win over San Francisco.was an offside penalty that negated a go-ahead TD that he scored off a lateral from Travis Kelce late in the fourth quarter of a loss to Buffalo.
Bradberry has earned praise from defensive coordinator Vic Fangio during camp but he’s still learning the position. The Eagles would take on about $15 million in dead cap money by releasing Bradberry but can spread that hit over two seasons with about $4.3 million counting against this season’s cap and the rest in 2025.Right tackle La’el Collins hasn’t played in an NFL game since 2022 because a knee injury forced him to miss last season.
