Cutdown day: Eagles finalize initial 53-man roster
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- The Philadelphia Eagles have finalized their initial 53-man roster for the 2022 season. Among the cuts are Olympic hurdler Devon Allen and safeties Anthony Harris and Jaquiski Tartt.
The Eagles also acquired safety Chauncey Gardner-Johnson in a trade with the New Orleans Saints on Tuesday.
Eagles wideout A.J. Brown puts cutdown day in perspective.
"The relationships are the hard part," Brown said. "You know, this is a business, and at the end of the day, it doesn't mean the story ends here if you get cut, whenever it's more opportunities out there. Of course, I want to try to keep everybody we can. But like I say, it's a business, that's why I'm here.
The Eagles open the season on Sept. 11 at 1 p.m. against the Detroit Lions.
