Eagles place Chris Maragos on injured reserve, promote Nate Gerry to active roster

The Philadelphia Eagles officially announced a few roster moves on Thursday morning.

First, the team placed Chris Maragos on the injured reserve list. Maragos suffered a knee injury in Philadelphia’s win over the Panthers last week.

Losing Maragos is unfortunate. He’s Philly’s special teams captain. He also provides emergency depth at safety. Depending on the severity of his injury, Maragos could potentially be brought back later this season. He’s eligible to return to the roster after eight weeks if the Eagles decide to use one of their two allowed “return from IR” designations on him.
