Eagles add former Bears tackle Kiran Amegadjie to practice squad
Summary

The Philadelphia Eagles signed offensive tackle Kiran Amegadjie to the practice squad following final roster cuts on Sunday. The move provides the team with additional developmental depth at the position after the club claimed Cameron Williams and Myles Hinton off waivers earlier this week. Amegadjie, a Yale product and 2024 third-round draft pick, appeared in six games for the Chicago Bears during his rookie season. His 2025 campaign ended early due to an elbow injury that placed him on the injured reserve list in September. Standing 6-foot-5 and 324 pounds, he will now work behind veterans Lane Johnson and Jordan Mailata within the Philadelphia organization. The practice squad addition allows Amegadjie the opportunity to develop his skills under the current coaching staff while the team manages its active roster rotation.
