Eagles Release Two Players and Sign Two Ahead of Week 6
The Philadelphia Eagles announced the release of tight end Josiah Deguara and cornerback Shaun Wade on Tuesday, making changes to their practice squad ahead of their Week 6 game against the Carolina Panthers.
Deguara, who joined the Eagles' practice squad on September 15 after previous stints with the San Francisco 49ers and New York Giants, has experience as a versatile H-back/tight end and special-teams contributor. He recorded 53 receptions for 471 yards and three touchdowns during his time in the NFL.
Wade's release marks the end of his second tenure with the Eagles. The 28-year-old cornerback had previously shown promise during the preseason. In response to these cuts, the Eagles signed offensive tackle Xavier Truss and defensive tackle Zion Wilson to strengthen their roster amid ongoing depth issues.
