John Ross will play for the Eagles after being cut from the practice squad

CINCINNATI— The Eagles signed veteran wide receiver John Ross from their practice squad on Saturday.

The former Bengals first-round pick signed with Philadelphia earlier this week after spending training camp with the Eagles.

After retiring last July, Ross was removed from the Chiefs’ reserve/retired list. He decided to make a return to the NFL at the end of last season.

The Bengals took Ross with the ninth overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft. He famously ran a 4.22 40-yard dash, which is now the second-fastest time in NFL Combine history.

Ross has 62 career catches for 957 yards and 11 touchdowns in 37 games. He hasn’t played in a regular-season NFL game since 2021. That should change on Sunday.

The Bengals play the Eagles on October 27, so there’s at least a chance Ross plays against his former team.
