Jaheim Bell: Signed to Eagles' practice squad
The Eagles signed Jaheim Bell to the practice squad Wednesday.The 2024 fourth-rounder was waived by the Patriots in late August after failing to make the team's 53-man roster, but he'll get another opportunity with the Eagles as a member of the practice squad. Bell could be elevated to the Eagles' active roster for Sunday's game against the Vikings if Grant Calcaterra (oblique) is unable to play. Bell mostly served on special teams across 15 regular-season games with the Patriots in 2024, though he did log two catches (on three targets) for 20 yards.

Jaheim Bell: Waived by Patriots
New England waived Jaheim Bell on Friday, Evan Lazar of the team's official site reports.The Patriots knew Bell was a developmental selection when nabbing him in the seventh round of the 2024 NFL Draft, so he seems a likely candidate to resurface on the practice squad if he goes unclaimed on waivers. Across 15 regular-season appearances as a rookie, Bell totaled two catches for 20 yards on three targets, and his one game with double-digit offensive snaps came Week 18 against Buffalo.

Patriots' Jaheim Bell: Two catches in rookie season
Jaheim Bell finished the 2024 regular season with two catches (on three targets) for 20 yards in 15 games.The 2024 seventh-rounder out of Florida State saw limited snaps on offense as a rookie while working behind veteran tight ends Hunter Henry and Austin Hooper. While Henry remains under contract with the New England Patriots in 2025, Hooper is eligible to become an unrestricted free agent, and if he's not re-signed, the 6-foot-2, 241-pound Bell could have an opportunity to see an increased complementary role in his second campaign as a pro.

Patriots' Jaheim Bell: Interesting pick for Pats
The New England Patriots selected Jaheim Bell in the seventh round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 231st overall.This is a pick that Bill Belichick would have made in New England. Bell is a very interesting prospect with a "tweener" type of frame, but legitimate athleticism that could get him on the field in a variety of ways. He began his career at South Carolina, where he played tight end but also had a role in the run game. From 2021 to 2022, Bell caught 55 of 73 targets for 728 yards and seven touchdowns while tallying 80 rushes for 301 yards and three scores. He transferred to Florida State and continued to produce as a pass catcher (39-503-2), but the 'Noles did not use him in the run game. At 6-foot-2 and 241, there's not a conventional role for him in an offense, so New England will have to get creative. Having 4.61 speed and a 124-inch broad jump will help his cause, however. Bell may be a seventh-round selection without a conventional role, but his tools and versatility should keep him on the radar in the later rounds of dynasty drafts.
