Eagles waive 5 players ahead of NFL roster cuts

The Philadelphia Eagles officially waived the following five players on Sunday morning: tight end Cary Angeline, defensive end JaQuan Bailey, running back Elijah Holyfield, wide receiver Marken Michel, and linebacker Rashad Smith.

None of these five cuts are surprising.

Angeline was signed as a camp body to help fill some reps with Tyree Jackson and Jason Croom getting hurt.

Bailey, an undrafted rookie free agent signing, didn’t flash all that much this summer. His departure means the Eagles have just two UDFAs remaining: Kayode Awosika and Jack Stoll.

Holyfield originally joined the Eagles in late 2019.
