Eagles elevate TE Jason Croom and DB Elijah Riley from practice squad to the active roster

The Philadelphia Eagles quietly made two more roster moves on Saturday, promoting tight end Jason Croom and defensive back Elijah Riley up from the practice squad to the active roster for Sunday’s matchup against the Steelers.

Croom will be the fourth tight end on the roster with Hakeem Butler listed as a tight end but able to play wide receiver.

Riley will replace Rudy Ford on special teams.
