The Eagles open the regular season two weeks from Sunday, when they host the Washington Commanders at Lincoln Financial Field on September 13 at 4:25 PM.
Now, Eagles fans know who they will be cheering on, as the team announced its initial 53-man roster. Initial is the key word, as teams can sign veterans with at least four years of experience who were released or place claims on players who were waived during the roster cutdown process.
Beginning Monday at 1 PM, teams will be notified if they were awarded any players they put a waiver claim in for (priority order is the same as for the 2026 NFL Draft, meaning the Las Vegas Raiders will be granted the first opportunity to claim players off waivers) and can also begin formulating the 16-player practice squad.
Here is a look at the 2026 Philadelphia Eagles' initial 53-man roster with the players listed in numerical order at each position. Below is also the list of roster moves that the Eagles made to get to the league-mandated 53-player limit.
