If you are searching for some sort of surprise, there are none.

Kyle McCord, who had a pretty good camp, not making the 53-man scratches some heads. The Eagles made the trade for Howell last week due to McKee’s finger injury, and him possibly missing time, but still avoiding an injured-list stint. They just ran out of room to carry McKee. The Eagles will likely have him on the practice squad if he passes through waivers.

Kenyon Green, the offensive lineman the Eagles got in return from Houston in the C.J. Gardner-Johnson trade, was cut this week, as well.

And as of now, the Eagles are without a long snapper.

“We are not done,” Howie Roseman said Tuesday. “We will see what happens over the next 24 hours. We have a lot of picks. We are happy to use those picks, but in the early part of the season in September, we have to see what we have. If we need something, I’ll do whatever I can to help this football team and be aggressive.”
