Eagles Re-sign Former First-Round Pick Kenyon Green Ahead Cowboys Opener

The Philadelphia Eagles' 2025 season opener against the Dallas Cowboys featured key roster changes and injury updates. Backup quarterback Tanner McKee was ruled out with a thumb injury, with Sam Howell stepping in as the new backup behind Jalen Hurts, while Pro Bowl guard Landon Dickerson returned from a knee injury to start. The Eagles re-signed former first-round pick offensive lineman Kenyon Green after initially releasing him, likely due to Dickerson's ongoing injury issues, although Green's performance has been underwhelming. Defensively, the Eagles are exploring options to strengthen their outside cornerback position opposite Quinyon Mitchell, with trade speculation involving Cleveland Browns' Greg Newsome II. Additionally, the team plans to try out former Saints second-round pick Isaiah Foskey, hoping to replicate past success turning former Saints players into key contributors. These moves reflect the Eagles' efforts to maintain depth and address weaknesses as they defend their Super Bowl title.
