Dae'Quan Wright and Jaedan Roberts, both waived by the Philadelphia Eagles on August 11, have quickly signed with new NFL teams. Wright has been claimed by the Cleveland Browns, while Roberts is set to join the Atlanta Falcons. Wright's release was unexpected by some observers, as he showed potential during spring practices. Roberts, who avoided a serious injury earlier in training camp, became expendable amid the Eagles' strong offensive line depth. Previously, the Eagles also released veteran running back Elijah Mitchell from injured reserve following an injury settlement.
