Quarterback Kyle McCord's time with his hometown Eagles was short, with Philadelphia waiving the rookie just months after picking him in the sixth round of the NFL draft. NFL teams have until 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday to reduce their active rosters to 53 players.

Ohio State’s starting quarterback from the 2023 season has been waived from his first NFL roster. Multiple reports said that Kyle McCord has been released by the Philadelphia Eagles and won’t make the final 53-man roster for the regular season.

The Philadelphia Eagles have released their 2025 sixth-round pick out of Syracuse, quarterback Kyle McCord, according to NFL insider Jordan Schultz. This move was not surprising at all since the Eagles made up their mind at QB3 when they traded the Minnesota Vikings for experienced veteran quarterback Sam Howell on Sunday morning.
