Eagles bring back WR Greg Ward Jr. on exclusive rights tender

The Eagles announced on Monday that they are bringing back slot receiver Greg Ward Jr. after the Houston product signed his exclusive-rights tender. This tender meant that as long as the Eagles made him a one-year deal at the league minimum, he could not sign for another team.

This is a nice way to start the week for Ward, who caught on with the Eagles as a UDFA in 2017 after converting to WR. Following two years of impressive training camps and preseasons that saw him narrowly miss the roster cut, he bounced back in 2019.
