Eagles waive player they traded for last year

The Philadelphia Eagles are waiving Jakorian Bennett, as noted by the NFL’s November 3 personnel notice.

The Eagles previously opened Bennett’s 21-day practice window to return from injured reserve on October 14. The team was coming up on the deadline to either 1) activate him to the roster or 2) shut him down for the remainder of the 2026 season.

Instead, the Eagles chose door No. 3 and waived him from IR to apparently allow him to catch on with a new team. Or perhaps he could return to Philly on the practice squad if he does land elsewhere?

Finding themselves in need of corner help, the Eagles originally acquired Bennett in a trade with the Las Vegas Raiders last summer.
