Marshall, 22, wound up signing a three-year, $1.62 million contract with the Eagles as an undrafted free agent out of Oregon back in May. However, he was unfortunately among their final roster cuts coming out of the preseason before being signed to their practice squad.
During his college career at Oregon, Marshall ran for 1,877 yards on 307 carries (6.1 YPC) to go along with 97 receptions for 1,293 yards receiving and 27 total touchdowns.
