Eagles Acquire Dotson Before Roster Cutdown Deadline

The Philadelphia Eagles have bolstered their receiving corps by acquiring Jahan Dotson from the Washington Commanders, addressing a key need for a solid third wide receiver behind A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith. Dotson, a first-round pick in 2022, brings proven NFL experience, with 84 catches for 1,041 yards and 11 touchdowns over his two-year career. This acquisition comes as teams across the NFL finalize their 53-man rosters ahead of the August 27 cutdown deadline. Meanwhile, the Kansas City Chiefs and other teams are making critical roster decisions, with the Chiefs potentially keeping extra running backs due to Clyde Edwards-Helaire's injury concerns. As the NFL season opener approaches, the Eagles and other teams continue to assess their rosters to ensure depth and address any remaining gaps, such as adding veteran depth at running back.
