The Eagles invested heavily in Carson Strong after the draft, and on Tuesday, the organization will cut its losses as the team is waiving the former Nevada star per Jonathan Jones.
Signed as a high-profile undrafted free agent, Strong’s contract included $320,000 guaranteed after he threw for over 4,000 yards with 36 touchdowns at Nevada in 2021.
A highly sought-out pocket passer, Strong barely saw action during joint practices or preseason games, and on Saturday and his most extensive playing time of the summer, Strong logged seven snaps and completed 1 of 3 passes for 6 yards.
During the entire summer, Strong saw just 15 snaps with just four passing attempts after having a reputation for being a gunslinger.
