Croom (knee) is believed to have suffered a right patella tendon injury in Thursday's preseason loss to the Patriots, NFL reporter Aaron Wilson reports.
Croom is undergoing an MRI to diagnose the full extent of his injury, and if a patella tendon tear is confirmed, it will only be a matter of time before the Eagles officially rule him out for the 2021 season. Across four appearances for Philadelphia last season, Croom turned his only target into a three-yard touchdown.

Eagles' Jason Croom: Joins active roster
Croom was signed to the active roster by the Eagles on Wednesday.
Philadelphia released guard Jamon Brown in a corresponding move to make room for the practice squad tight end. Croom caught a three-yard touchdown in his Eagles debut last week, and he should see an expanded role behind Richard Rodgers against the Giants on Thursday with both Zach Ertz (ankle) and Dallas Goedert (ankle) unavailable. Hakeem Butler is also on the roster at the tight end position.

Croom reverted to the Eagles' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Croom made an instant impact in his debut, recording three-yard touchdown reception in his only offensive snap in Sunday's loss to the Ravens. He also chipped in seven snaps on special teams. Look for Croom to potentially be called up again soon with Zach Ertz (ankle) set to miss a couple weeks.

Eagles' Jason Croom: Picks up second career TD
Croom recorded a three-yard touchdown reception Sunday in the Eagles' 30-28 loss to the Ravens.
Making his team debut, Croom took the field as part of the Eagles' goal-line package in the fourth quarter and was able to find paydirt on his lone offensive snap of the contest. With top tight end Zach Ertz (ankle) expected to miss the next 3-to-4 weeks after exiting early in Sunday's contest, Croom should stick on the Eagles' active roster for the team's Week 7 game against the Giants on Thursday night. Ertz's absence may open up some more snaps for Croom, but expect Richard Rodgers to dominate the work at the position.

Jason Croom: Demoted to practice squad
Croom has reverted to Philadelphia's practice squad, per the NFL's transaction log.
The former Bill made his first NFL appearance in two years during Philadelphia's Week 5 loss to the Steelers, though he only garnered two offensive snaps and seven special-teams snaps. Dallas Goedert (ankle) must sit out at least one more week after landing on injured reserve Sept. 29, but the Eagles seemingly feel comfortable with Richard Rodgers and Hakeem Butler as secondary options at tight end heading into a matchup against the Ravens.

Eagles' Jason Croom: Earns promotion Sunday
Croom was elevated to the Eagles' active roster from the practice squad Saturday.
With Dallas Goedert (ankle) hitting IR last week, the team elected to have in-house reinforcements to its 53-man roster. Croom last suited up in game action in 2018, when he racked up 22 catches for 259 yards and a touchdown with the Bills. If he suits up for Week 5, he'll likely be used as a blocking tight end and on special teams.

Jason Croom: Can't survive final cut
The Bills cut Croom (hamstring) on Saturday, according to Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle per a league source.
Dawson Knox and Tyler Kroft are both healthy entering the season and the Bills have several other tight ends in the mix. In the end, Croom's battle with injuries and lack of development the last season or so cost him a spot on the team.
