Eagles' John Ross: Seeing first-team work
John Ross was spotted working with the Philadelphia Eagles' first-team offense Thursday, Brandon Lee Gowton of BGN Radio reports.Parris Campbell worked as the Eagles' No. 3 wide receiver during the team's first day of camp, but it now appears that Ross will get a shot to compete for that spot as well. The 28-year-old wideout's most recent in-game action came back in 2021 with the Giants, when he recorded 11 receptions for 224 yards and one touchdown across 12 games (203 offensive snaps). Philadelphia has been in search of a third wide receiver for quite a long time, and it seems as if Ross could have the opportunity to take that role.

Eagles' John Ross: Signs with Eagles
John Ross and the Philadelphia Eagles agreed on a one-year contract Thursday.Ross announced in late November that he was attempting an NFL comeback after temporarily retiring in July and he participated in Philadelphia's rookie minicamp in April. The wide receiver was selected in the first round of the 2017 NFL Draft after posting a blazing 4.22 second 40-yard dash time at the combine, but he has yet to really ever find his groove in the league. Ross last appeared in an NFL contest in 2021, securing 11 receptions for 224 yards and a touchdown over 10 games with the Giants and he'll likely operate primarily as a special-teams option if he cracks the Eagles' active roster in 2024.
