The Philadelphia Eagles waived tight end E.J. Jenkins after he served as a third or fourth tight end on game days with zero targets in 67 offensive snaps over six games, contributing primarily as a blocker and on special teams. The waiver move may be related to the Eagles running out of practice squad elevations for Zach Ertz, with the team potentially planning to sign Ertz to the roster while bringing Jenkins back on the practice squad.
