Eagles Place S Chris Maragos On Injured Reserve; Promote LB Nathan Gerry To Active Roster

Safety Chris Maragos has been placed on Injured Reserve after suffering a knee injury last week against the Panthers. Maragos went down around the eight-minute mark of the fourth quarter while covering a punt on special teams.

One of the Eagles' elite special teams playmakers and captains, Maragos started at safety earlier this season against the Giants when Rodney McLeod was out.

Linebacker Nathan Gerry moves up to the Eagles' active roster from the practice taking Maragos’ place. Gerry was the Eagles' fifth-round in 2017 out of Nebraska. Gerry played safety in college and was converted to the linebacker spot when he came to Philadelphia.
