Eagles Adding Trey Sermon to Practice Squad
Birds:
Eagles and 49ers discussed a trade for Trey Sermon last week; instead the Eagles claim Sermon on waivers today. https://t.co/u4QxYIMsIc

Third round pick last year, former Oklahoma and Ohio State running back. The Niners have good backs and a specific system and just didn’t see a spot for him on the team, or at least that’s the “narrative” going around. Maybe they secretly think he stinks.
Good move for the Birds, though. Buy low on a 21 year old that could go for a change of scenery. Take a low-risk swing here. They do need a RB to beef up the depth chart, so throw Sermon on the practice squad and see what he’s got.
EDIT – an earlier version of story said he went to Georgia, I was typing too fast and had a brain fart
