The Eagles welcomed back long snapper Charley Hughlett to the practice squad on New Year's Eve. Hughlett was waived by the team on Monday and cleared waivers, paving the road for him to return to the practice squad.

Hughlett has served as the long snapper in seven games this season for the Eagles, all wins.

Signed to a one-year deal in the offseason, Hughlett was the long snapper for the first four games before landing on Injured Reserve with an abdominal injury. He came back for the last three games.

Hughlett joined the Eagles after 10 seasons with the Cleveland Browns, where he was a team captain.

In Sunday's win over the Bills, Hughlett served as the long snapper for Jake Elliott's two field goals and extra point attempt, allowing the kicker to become just the second Eagle to surpass 1,000 career points. Punter Braden Mann averaged 55.4 yards on seven punts.
