Eagles open 21-day practice windows for Sydney Brown, Ainias Smith

Roster Moves 2024 Season

Are reinforcements coming for the Eagles after the bye week?

The Eagles announced on Monday evening that they have opened the 21-day practice windows for safety Sydney Brown (Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform) and wide receiver Ainias Smith (Injured Reserve; Designated for Return). The team is scheduled to return to the practice field on Wednesday.

Brown is in his second year after the Eagles made him a third-round pick out of Illinois in 2023. He played in 14 games (6 starts) and generated 38 tackles on defense and one of the plays of the year – a 99-yard pick-six off of Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray. Brown, whose pick-six tied for the fourth longest in Eagles history, became the first Eagles rookie to convert an interception into a touchdown since 2015. He suffered a season-ending knee injury in the regular-season finale at the Giants exactly nine months ago.

Smith is a 23-year-old rookie out of Texas A&M. The 5-foot-9, 176-pound wide receiver was a fifth-round pick back in the spring. The dynamic all-purpose player finished his college career as the only SEC player to record at least 2,000 receiving yards, 250 rushing yards, 250 punt return yards, and 250 kickoff return yards. He was a first-team All-SEC all-purpose player and return specialist. He produced 22 plays of 20+ yards in 2023.

The Eagles are back from the bye week with an eye on getting a win Sunday when the Cleveland Browns come to town for a 1 PM showdown at Lincoln Financial Field. Check out these exclusive images from the team's practices and workouts throughout the week.
