The Philadelphia Eagles didn’t temporarily elevate any of their practice squad players for their first two games but they’ve chosen to do so ahead of their Week 3 Monday Night Football matchup against the Dallas Cowboys.
The Eagles officially announced they elevated second-year guard Sua Opeta to the active roster. Opeta is one of four practice squad players the Eagles used a protection on earlier this week.
Opeta’s elevation comes in the wake of the Eagles placing starting right guard Brandon Brooks on injured reserve. The team clearly felt a need for more offensive line depth.
