Eagles cut Kamar Aiken, call up defensive tackle from practice squad

The Philadelphia Eagles made a roster move on Friday morning. The team officially cut veteran wide receiver Kamar Aiken in order to call up rookie defensive tackle Bruce Hector from the practice squad.

This move seems to indicate Haloti Ngata, who has been limited in practice this week, likely won’t be able to play on Sunday. Doug Pederson said Ngata is “questionable” for the Panthers game.

Prior to calling up Hector, the Eagles would’ve been down to just Fletcher Cox and Treyvon Hester at defensive tackle if Ngata couldn’t suit up.
