After an intense five weeks of training camp, the Philadelphia Eagles have finalized their initial practice squad for the upcoming 2024 NFL season. The team announced the signing of 14 players to the practice squad on August 28, 2024.

Among the signed players are two veterans, adding valuable experience to the squad. One of them is running back Burks, who had shown glimpses of his talent during the preseason but was waived due to injury concerns. Despite being initially released, Burks has secured a place in the practice squad, showcasing the team's belief in his potential.

Another notable addition to the practice squad is center Nick Gates, who reportedly has a promise to land a spot on the 53-man roster by Week 1. Gates has proven himself during training camp and has the versatility to contribute to the team both on and off the field.

The Eagles have also added defensive tackle Gabe Hall, a former Baylor standout known for his size and versatility. Hall's presence on the practice squad provides depth and could potentially earn him a spot on the active roster in the future.

Wide receiver Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint, who excelled during his time at Georgia with impressive stats, has joined the Eagles' practice squad. Standing at 6 feet 1 inch and weighing 205 pounds, Rosemy-Jacksaint brings a solid skillset and familiarity to the team.

In addition, the practice squad includes tight end E.J. Jenkins, center Dylan McMahon, defensive back Jarius Monroe, running back Myles Gaskin, linebacker Brandon Smith, and tight end Jack Stoll. These players will provide depth and competition in practice, pushing their teammates to perform at their best.

Practice squad players have the opportunity to be elevated up to three times for game days, giving them a chance to contribute to the team's success on the field. With a mix of veterans and promising young talents, the Eagles' practice squad is poised to support the main roster throughout the season.

The signings complete the Eagles' practice squad, which can consist of up to 16 players. The team has filled 14 spots, leaving room for potential additions in the future. This strategic maneuver allows the Eagles to have a pool of talented players ready to step up when called upon.

As the 2024 NFL season approaches, the Philadelphia Eagles are focused on building a strong and competitive team. The signing of these 14 players to the practice squad reflects their commitment to nurturing talent and finding the right pieces to achieve success on the gridiron.
