The Philadelphia Eagles announced Tuesday that they’ve released TE Richard Rodgers from their practice squad.
The Eagles also designated OL Jack Driscoll and CB Josiah Scott to return from injured reserve.
This opens a three-week window of time for the Eagles to activate them from injured reserve and add him to their 53-man roster.
Rodgers, 29, is a former third-round pick of the Packers back in 2014 out of California. He played out the final year of his four-year, $2,761,016 contract with the Packers before agreeing to a one-year contract with the Eagles in 2018.
The Eagles re-signed Rodgers to a two-year, $1.9 million in 2019 but later released him with an injury settlement in September. From there, Rodgers joined Washington last offseason but was cut loose and returned to Philadelphia on a one-year deal. Philadelphia re-signed him during training camp and later added him to their practice squad.
In 2020, Rodgers appeared 14 games for the Eagles and recorded 24 receptions for 345 yards (14.4 YPC) and two touchdowns.
