On Tuesday afternoon, the Eagles agreed to terms with kicker Jake Elliott from the Bengals’ practice squad and placed kicker Caleb Sturgis on Injured Reserve.
Elliott was the Bengals' fifth-round pick in 2017. He attended Memphis where he connected on 81-of-104 field goal attempts as well as 202 consecutive PATs. As a Tiger, Elliott was named an All-America in 2015 and set the school record with a 56-yard field goal that beat out the previous mark set by Patriots’ All-Pro kicker Stephen Gostkowski. The Western Springs, Illinois native finished ninth all time in NCAA FBS scoring and earned two AAC Special Teams Player of the Year awards from 2014-15.
