Eagles announce three roster moves as team gets down to the 85-player limit

The Philadelphia Eagles announced three roster moves on Tuesday as the team prepares for a Wednesday flight to Cleveland for two days of joint practices and a preseason matchup against the Browns on Sunday.

Philadelphia waived/injured wide receiver Lance Lenoir, safety Jared Mayden, and cornerback Jimmy Moreland just days after the team moved on from Ali Fayad and William Dunkle.
