Eagles updated 53-man roster vs. Commanders: News and notes for Week 4

NFL rosters are always fluid, and the Eagles have had some changes ahead of Sunday’s Week 4 matchup against the Washington Commanders.

Wide receiver Quez Watkins returned to practice on Thursday and was a limited participant on Friday, but he will miss a second straight game due to a hamstring injury.

With a hamstring injury, Rookie safety Sydney Brown is also out after not practicing all week.

On Saturday, the team elevated punter Braden Mann and defensive back Tristin McCollum from the practice squad.
