Eagles sign CB Bradley Roby to the active roster and place Justin Evans on injured reserve.

After one week on the practice squad, the Eagles have seen enough to warrant Bradley Roby being on the 53-man roster.

The team signed the veteran cornerback to the active roster on Friday, and then placed safety Justin Evans on injured reserve.

Philadelphia will also be without Jalen Cater, Darius Slay, Evans, and Quez Watkins for Sunday’s matchup at the Jets.

Evans has been placed on Injured Reserve with a knee injury. Evans did not participate in practice this week.

The six-year veteran missed the Week 4 game against the Washington Commanders with a neck injury, but returned to start against the Rams.

In four games this season, Evans recorded 14 tackles, two pass deflections, one forced fumble, and one fumble recovery.
