A week ago from today, the Philadelphia Eagles promoted practice squad cornerback Craig James to their 53-man roster and signed tight end Alex Ellis back to their practice squad after cutting him.
Now the reversal is complete. The Eagles re-signed Ellis to their 53-man roster earlier this week and now they’ve officially brought James back to their practice squad. All is as it once was. Order has been restored to the galaxy.
It’s not perfectly clear why the Eagles ever waived Ellis and promoted James in the first place.
