Juriga was one of 12 players waived on Thursday, but the expectation always that the Eagles would utilize space on the practice squad to develop a player that could have a long future in Philadelphia.
Juriga earned first-team All-Mac honors as a senior after switching over from the guard position. A huge player, Juriga stands 6-foot-3, 301 pounds, and at 22 years old, is likely Jason Kelce’s replacement at center.
