Eagles announce 2 roster moves ahead of Week 17 matchup
Eric Hartline-USA TODAY Sports

The Philadelphia Eagles announced two roster moves on Thursday ahead of their Week 17 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. 

The team signed wide receiver Griffin Hebert to the Practice Squad and placed wide receiver Devon Allen on the Practice Squad Injured Reserve with an undisclosed injury.

Hebert, a rookie wideout of Louisana Tech, signed with the Seattle Seahawks as an undrafted free agent this offseason. 

He has yet to appear in a regular-season NFL game, but he did catch three of four targets for 21 yards during some preseason action.

Herbert has quite an impressive college resume as he played wide receiver, fullback and tight end for the Bulldogs where he logged 99 catches for 1,582 yards and 14 career touchdowns in five seasons. 

Allen, better known as a two-time Olympian in the 110m hurdles, was elevated twice this season for special teams depth. He ends his season short after returning one kick for 17 yards.
