The Eagles announced on Saturday that they have waived offensive lineman Kenyon Green.

The former first-round pick was inactive for Thursday night's season-opening win over the Dallas Cowboys.

The 24-year-old Green was acquired from Houston in a trade this past offseason. The former first-round pick (15th overall) started 23 of 27 regular-season games in two seasons with the Texans.

Green played guard throughout Training Camp and the preseason. After being waived during the final roster cutdown, Green was signed to the practice squad then later to the active roster.

The Eagles signed defensive end Za'Darius Smith on Friday and placed fullback Ben VanSumeren on Injured Reserve. By waiving Green, the Eagles have an open spot on the 53-man active roster as they begin preparation for next Sunday's battle with the Kansas City Chiefs.
