The Eagles announced on Sunday that they have waived wide receiver Xavier Gipson.
The team also downgraded tackle Myles Hinton, who is on Injured Reserve with a back injury, to out.
Gipson was claimed off waivers by the Eagles on September 22 after playing for both the Jets and the Giants to open the year. In five games with the Eagles, Gipson primarily served as the lead punt returner, with six returns for 67 yards (11.2 yards per return).
Following a shoulder injury in Week 12 against the Cowboys, the Eagles signed Britain Covey off the practice squad to handle punt returns.
The Eagles also downgraded rookie offensive tackle Myles Hinton to out on Sunday. Hinton has been on Injured Reserve all season with a back injury. He has practiced fully in recent weeks, but will not be activated for Monday night's game against the Chargers.
Safety Marcus Epps (shoulder) is also on Injured Reserve. If the Eagles choose to activate him, they must do so by 4 PM on Monday. There is now an open roster spot if they choose to use it on him.
