Cornerback Jakorian Bennett won’t be returning to the Eagles lineup, even after hitting the practice field a few weeks back. The Eagles officially waived Bennett off their injured reserve list on Tuesday, November 3, 2026.

The Comeback That Never Quite Was

Bennett landed on injured reserve earlier in the season, suffering a knee injury during training camp. He was designated for return, which no doubt had folks wondering if he’d be back in action. But the team never actually activated him, and this latest move officially closes that chapter for Bennett in Philadelphia.

He joined the Eagles in a trade with the Raiders just before the 2025 season. During his time in Philly, he put up seven tackles across 11 games last season. Before becoming an Eagle, Bennett, who was a 2023 fourth-round pick, played 24 games for the Raiders and racked up 58 tackles.

More Roster Moves in Philly

In another roster shuffle, the Eagles also announced they released wide receiver Quentin Skinner from their practice squad.
