Eagles claim former Washington draft pick off waivers

This isn’t the first time the Eagles have shown interest in the former James Madison product. They previously wanted to sign Moreland after he was waived by Washington in September 2021 but he was claimed by the Texans instead.
The Eagles were able to get him this time around after the 18 teams ahead of them in the waiver wire (which mirrors the NFL Draft order) opted not to put a claim in.
