Eagles sign safety Anthony Harris and punter Brett Kern to the practice squad

The Eagles announced four practice squad moves, signing safety Anthony Harris and punter Brett Kern while releasing Auden Tate and Marquise Blair.

Kern was brought in to replace Arryn Siposs who was placed on injured reserve, while Harris will replace Reed Blankenship in the lineup.

Philadelphia has one open roster spot ahead of Sunday’s matchup against the Bears and it expected that tight end Dallas Goedert will return to the lineup.

Harris was initially signed by the Eagles in 2021 after playing with Minnesota for six seasons.

Harris was released from the practice squad just before the start of this regular season when the Eagles traded for safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson, and Harris then spent a few weeks with the Broncos in 2022.
