The Eagles on Tuesday released veteran tight end Jack Stoll, presumably to create a spot on the 53-man roster for Jordan Mailata. Stoll, who originally made the team as an undrafted free agent out of Nebraska in 2021, played in 57 games with 28 starts for the Eagles, with 22 catches for 193 yards.
He caught two passes for 10 yards this year.He’s been on and off the 53-man roster and practice squad this year, playing in seven games, including one as a practice squad call-up. After three seasons with the Eagles, Stoll signed with the Giants as a free agent in March but was released as part of their final cuts and rejoined the Eagles the next day on the practice squad.The Eagles got veteran tight end Dallas Goedert back Sunday for the Cowboys game after he missed three games with a hamstring injury. Grant Calcaterra supplanted Stoll as the No. 2 tight end this year and has 17 catches for 216 yards in nine games. But Stoll, a blocking specialist, played a lot – 201 snaps in seven games after getting promoted from the practice squad in Week 3. He played 17 snaps against the Cowboys Sunday. The Eagles don’t have any other tight ends on the 53-man roster, but they do have E.J. Jenkins and C.J. Uzomah on the practice squad. Jenkins has played 16 snaps on offense and 23 on special teams in three games, two as game-day elevations and one on the roster. Uzomah, a 10-year veteran with 192 career catches, hasn’t played this year. He was with the Eagles in training camp, released in late August, and re-signed to the practice squad Oct. 10.
