Familiar Faces Are Popping Up on the Eagles Practice Squad

According to CSNPhilly's Reuben Frank, the Eagles have brought back three players who they released yesterday to join their 2011 practice squad.

WR/RB/PR Chad Hall makes his second annual appearance on the PS after spending eight games on the active roster last season. He just barely makes the eligibility cut. Although Hall demonstrated during the preseason that he was a shaky option at punt returner, look for the Eagles to call him back to active duty at the first sign of trouble with their wide receiver corps.

LB Greg Lloyd and FB Stanley Havili, both 2011 seventh round picks, were the only two draft acquisitions who didn't make the Eagles roster. It comes as little surprise that they were both given a second shot by the front office.

[Update by Bob_Q, 09/03/11 3:20 PM EDT ] OL Dallas Reynolds will be the fourth former Eagle to make this year's practice squad. After joining the team in 2009 as an undrafted rookie, Reynolds has spent the last two seasons on the PS. The Eagles now have only four more spots to fill.

[Update by Bob_Q, 09/03/11 3:30 PM EDT ] DE Daniel Te'o-Nesheim has also been added to the practice squad. The Eagles now have only three more spots to fill. Look for the newly released Cedric Thornton to be one of the signees.

He will eventually be let go, but you can be sure he will be replaced with another scrappy Mormon RB/WR tweener with no upside that would have no chance of making any of the 31 other rosters.

Couldn't Make the Other Rosters?

I bet the Bears would take him. I’d wager that a number of teams would. I think that Hall is a decent, modestly-talented receiver who is a borderline slot receiver on several teams.

Those 7th round picks are Gold, I tell ya, Gold !

I would hope they wouldn’t give up on the 2011 7th round picks just yet, they’re very serious about those 7th round picks.

IS IT SAFE

for me to buy my girlfriend a DJax jersey? It’s him or Vick and I’d really prefer to get her DJax. I’m just worried he somehow doesnt get a new contract….am I safe going with Djax?

No way...

I would definitely give it a couple of weeks, and if they don’t sign him then don’t do it until the extension is signed.

You make it sound like you already know this. I would hope that it is true, but that’s not certain, depending on how his contract talks unfold and if the Eagles or Desean will budge. It’s definitely not certain.

Just won’t go away. If we call him up just for kick returns I might slice my wrist lengthwise.

by CSJones on Sep 4, 2011 3:08 PM EDT up reply actions  

Partly, it might be for actual practice. If we want the #1 defense to practice against the #2 offense, and we want that offense to use a fullback, Havili can do that.

by ATG. on Sep 4, 2011 9:38 PM EDT up reply actions  

I'm more curious about the other 5 PS spots

These three are kinda “eh, thought they’d stick around, but I wouldn’t cry if we lost them.”

Hall definitely earned a chance though.

While I do not have the homerism of HawaiianGreen, Te’o is certainly a good practice squad candidate for us.

by captain nodar on Sep 4, 2011 7:31 PM EDT reply actions  

Yes, good move for the Eagles to still keep him around. If a player is on our ps, can another team just sign him to their roster if they wanted to or what is the procedure for that, if anyone knows…

by Eagladelphia on Sep 4, 2011 7:33 PM EDT up reply actions  

Yes, any team can sign anyone’s practice squad players to their active roster, so PS players are essentially unprotected.
