Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that the Eagles are waiving veteran RB Jay Ajayi on Monday now that RB Jordan Howard is set to return.
Ajayi, 26, is a former fifth-round pick of the Dolphins back in 2015. He played out the final year of his four-year, $2.5 million contract and made a base salary of $1.9 million for the 2018 season.
The Eagles acquired Ajayi in a trade with the Dolphins that sent a 2018 fourth-round pick to Miami. He returned to Philadelphia last month.
In 2019, Ajayi has appeared in three games for the Eagles and rushed for 30 yards on 10 carries (3 YPC) and no touchdowns.
