10 Eagles Who Will Be Cut By Tuesday's Roster Deadline

5. Darian Kinnard, OT

Following Jason Kelce's retirement, the Eagles' offensive line will look signficiantly different than it has for the last decade. There are open spots to be taken, though Darian Kinnard is an easy cut candidate given his position and the number of quality players Philadelphia has to choose from.

Kinnard has bounced around the league since being selected in the fifth round of the 2022 NFL Draft by the Kansas City Chiefs. He has the versatility to play both tackle positions but has only one career game played in the NFL.

Unfortunately for the former Kentucky standout, Philadelphia's tackle rotation is set. Jordan Muliata and Lane Johnson are firmly set as the starters while Fred Johnson likely serving as a swing tackle to back those two up. In a familiar theme, Kinnard is a likely practice squad target, but it's hard to fit him onto the final roster given how many other players are fighting for more competitive spots.

Tyler Steen could be placed on injured reserve, freeing up a roster spot that theoretically could go to Kinnard. Given the preseason snap counts and Kinnard's limited in-game experience, Steen's spot would likely go elsewhere.

Nonetheless, Kinnard is still a valuable player due to his versatility and familiarity with multiple schemes. If Roseman can find a way to keep him on the practice squad, he will.
