The Philadelphia Eagles appeared to have tried to hold off as long as they could, but they couldn't do it anymore with a roster move four weeks in the making.
On Sunday before the Denver Broncos matchup, the Eagles announced their inactive list for Week 5. This was the shortest inactive list of the season for the team, as they only had four players on it.
- Sam Howell, QB (third QB)
- Mac McWilliams, CB
- Drew Kendall, OL
- Xavier Gipson, WR
There is a noticeable name that is no longer on the inactive list after four consecutive weeks.
