Eagles waive tight end to make room for Jason Peters signing

The Philadelphia Eagles waived tight end Alex Ellis to make room for Jason Peters on their 90-man roster, according to an official announcement from the team.

I’m at least a little surprised the Eagles parted ways with Ellis. I recently wrote about how he had a chance to push for the third tight end spot behind Zach Ertz and Dallas Goedert.

This offseason would’ve marked Ellis’s first full one in Philly since he originally joined the Eagles last August. It would’ve been interesting to watch him since he showed some good flashes in last year’s practices and preseason games.
