A former Michigan State linebacker will be available for Monday Night Football this week, as the Philadelphia Eagles elevated Ben VanSumeren to the active roster from their practice squad.
VanSumeren is an interesting player for the Eagles. I don’t think he was on anyone’s NFL radar when playing for MSU, but an extremely impressive Pro Day showed that he has clear, NFL-level athleticism and it seems that he is sticking around in the league and could have an opportunity to show it on a big stage tonight.
