Eagles Elevate Devon Allen to Active Roster, Waive Jhamon Ausbon

Devon Allen Elevated, Jhamon Ausbon Waived

The Philadelphia Eagles have elevated wide receiver Devon Allen to the active roster from the practice squad and waived wide receiver Jhamon Ausbon to make room. Allen was signed to the practice squad in September after a standout preseason with the Eagles. He has yet to appear in a regular-season game for Philadelphia.

Allen's Development

Allen, a former Olympic hurdler, has been working to develop his skills as a wide receiver since joining the Eagles. He has impressed coaches with his athleticism and speed, and he has been making progress as a route runner.

Filling In for A.J. Brown

With star wide receiver A.J. Brown expected to miss multiple games with an ankle injury, the Eagles needed to add depth to their receiving corps. Allen could see some playing time in the slot, where he can use his speed to create separation from defenders.

Ausbon's Waiving

Ausbon was acquired by the Eagles in a trade with the Dallas Cowboys in August. He has not made much of an impact with the team, appearing in just one game this season. The Eagles decided to waive Ausbon to make room for Allen.

Conclusion

The Eagles' elevation of Devon Allen and waiving of Jhamon Ausbon are moves that will help the team fill out its roster and prepare for the upcoming games. Allen has the potential to be a valuable contributor to the offense, while Ausbon's departure clears the way for Allen to get more playing time.
