After getting their roster down to 53 players on Saturday, the Eagles are still busy forming their fluid roster and their practice squad.
They claimed LB D.J. Alexander off waivers (see story) and now they're forming their practice squad.
The Eagles have already brought back two notable players to their practice squad, signing Josh Adams and De'Vante Bausby, according to league sources.
Adams is the talented young running back from Notre Dame, who came pretty close to making the initial 53-man roster. Many fans would have probably preferred Adams get the spot instead of Wendell Smallwood.
Bausby, 25, is running out of practice squad eligibility, but is back for now. The cornerback looked like a lock to make the squad in the spring, but was then passed on the depth chart by Sidney Jones and Avonte Maddox as the Eagles kept just five corners on the roster.
According to NFL Network's Mike Pelissero, the Eagles are also adding cornerback Chandon Sullivan to their practice squad. The undrafted CB had a strong training camp with the Eagles.
The practice squad is a group of 10 players who aren't on the active 53-man roster, but practice with the team for the sake of developing young talent. Players on the practice squad are free to sign elsewhere when they're on the practice squad.
