Roster moves: Eagles have signed WR Britain Covey from their practice squad to their active roster and signed TE Josiah Via @AdamSchefter on X

What happened: Covey moves from the practice squad to the active roster as a wide receiver. Philadelphia signed tight end Josiah Deguara to the practice squad. Guard Landon Dickerson officially went on injured reserve.

Why it matters: The moves keep Philadelphia's active roster steady while swapping interior line depth for receiver availability. The practice-squad addition preserves tight end depth without using an active spot.

What to watch: Watch Philadelphia's upcoming inactives and line combinations to see how the rotation adjusts.
