This development obviously comes as no surprise given that Long announced his retirement on Saturday evening. Placing Long on the reserve/retired list is essentially like cutting him, except for the fact the Eagles still own his rights. Long is no longer taking up a spot on the Eagles’ 90-man roster. The team is also now clearing $5.3 million in cap space compared to $300 http://www.eagleslockerroom.com/authentic-wes-hopkins-jersey ,000 in dead money. The savings bring the Eagles up just over $27 million in cap space, according to Over The Cap.In the event that the Eagles suffer some defensive line injuries and try to coax Long out of retirement this year, that option is open. Such a scenario would require the Eagles activating Long to the roster.As of right now Wilbert Montgomery Jersey , though, Long won’t be playing this year and this latest transaction reminds us of that sad fact.It remains to be seen how the Eagles will fill their open roster spot. They might look to sign one of their rookie minicamp tryout players ahead of their first OTA practice on Tuesday. Or maybe they’ll add a veteran defensive end. Or maybe they’ll just keep the roster at 89 players for now.Eagles bring back rookie linebacker to their practice squad The Philadelphia Eagles signed rookie linebacker Asantay Brown back to their practice squad, according to an official announcement from the team on Wednesday afternoon. Brown originally signed with the Eagles as an undrafted rookie free agent following the 2018 NFL Draft. He didn’t stand out much during the offseason Womens Harold Carmichael Jersey , and he actually missed most of the summer with some kind of injury, but he did manage to play in the preseason finale. The Eagles waived Brown during final roster cuts but they did sign him back to their original 10-man practice squad. Brown then got released from the practice squad in order to make room for Joe Walker.Now Walker is gone after signing with the Arizona Cardinals’ 53-man roster on Tuesday. His absence left a vacant spot for Brown to return.The Eagles currently have one more practice squad vacancy since Josh Adams was promoted to the active roster yesterday. It shouldn’t be too long before Philadelphia fills that spot.
