It didn't take long for the Philadelphia Eagles to bring back a player that has been popular for his improvement year over year.
On Thursday morning, the Eagles announced the signing of defensive tackle Gabe Hall to the practice squad, who was just waived from the team earlier in the week. To make room on the practice squad for Hall, defensive tackle Jacob Sykes was released one day after getting signed.

Hall had a good preseason with four tackles to his stat line. He also has a fan with Eagles defensive coordinator Vic Fangio, who praised Hall during training camp for his improvement as he learned from being on the practice squad last year. The Eagles had Hall on the field for nine snaps in their 24-20 win over the Dallas Cowboys last week.
Sykes has bounced back and forth on the roster since being cut at the end of training camp. He finished the preseason with two tackles.
How many more moves can be expected before Sunday's showdown with Chiefs?
The Eagles' trade for running back Tank Bigsby threw a wrench in the roster, with fellow running back Will Shipley dealing with a rib injury and could be out at least a month. This has resulted in Eagles general manager Howie Roseman doing his best gymnastic impersonation, with getting the roster back at full strength.
More could be done depending on the severity of tight end Dallas Goedert's injury, as he did not practice on Wednesday. Goedert is dealing with an injury to his knee as he has a sprain. His status for the Chiefs game is up in the air for the moment.
