INJURIES

Won't play in Super Bowl LIX The Eagles did not activate Uzomah (abdomen) from injured reserve and he will not play in Super Bowl LIX against the Chiefs on Sunday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Impact Uzomah was a full participant in practice all week, but he will observe Sunday's game from the sidelines. The veteran tight end was signed to the Eagles' practice squad in early October before being signed to the active roster Dec. 4. Uzomah suffered an abdominal injury in Week 17 against the Cowboys, which was severe enough for him to be placed on IR. He did not record a target across the seven regular-season games he played in 2024.
FEBRUARY 9 • ROTOWIRE
Questionable for Super Bowl Uzomah (abdomen), who remains on IR, practiced in full Friday and is officially listed as questionable for Super Bowl LIX on Sunday.
Impact Uzomah continues to practice in full, a sign that he's healthy enough to contribute during the Super Bowl, but the Eagles will need to officially activate Uzomah to the 53-man roster by Saturday's deadline in order for him to compete versus Kansas City. If Uzomah is brought to the active roster in time to suit up Sunday, he'll contribute behind Dallas Goedert and Grant Calcaterra at the tight end position.
FEBRUARY 7 • ROTOWIRE
FP in Wednesday's practice Uzomah (abdomen) was listed as a full practice participant on Wednesday's injury report.
Impact Uzomah suffered an abdominal injury during the Eagles' Week 17 win over the Cowboys. The injury was severe enough for the veteran tight end to be placed on injured reserve, which forced him to miss the Eagles' first three playoff games. Uzomah's ability to practice in full Wednesday is a sign that he is near full health, and he could be activated from IR ahead of Sunday's Super Bowl LIX clash against Kansas City.

FEBRUARY 4 • AL.COM
Questionable for Super Bowl Uzomah (abdomen) is listed as questionable for Super Bowl LIX on Sunday, Feb. 9 against the Chiefs.
Impact Uzomah remains on injured reserve and has been out since Jan. 1 after being injured in Week 17. Uzomah played 132 offensive snaps during the regular season but didn't draw a single target in the passing game. He'll get another chance to practice next week ahead of the Super Bowl.
FEBRUARY 1 • ROTOWIRE
Practice window opened The Eagles have opened up the practice window for Uzomah (abdomen) ahead of the Super Bowl.
Impact Uzomah, who suffered an abdominal injury during Week 17 action, will thus have an opportunity to resume practicing ahead of the Eagles' Feb. 9 contest against the Chiefs. If Uzomah is activated ahead of the Super Bowl, he'd bolster the depth of a Philadelphia tight end corps that's currently led by Dallas Goedert and Grant Calcaterra. Prior to his injury, Uzomah was not targeted during the seven regular-season games that he played in.
JANUARY 30 • ROTOWIRE
Placed on IR Uzomah was placed on injured reserve by the Eagles on Wednesday.
Impact Uzomah suffered an abdominal injury in the team's 41-7 win over the Cowboys in Week 17 and he'll now be forced to miss the team's regular-season finale and potentially the entire postseason. The tight end will finish his 2024 campaign having played 126 offensive snaps and 26 snaps on special teams over seven contests with Philadelphia, failing to record any stats.
JANUARY 2 • ROTOWIRE
Questionable to return Sunday Uzomah (abdomen) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Cowboys.
Impact The tight end did not record a stat in a backup role to Grant Calcaterra before exiting the contest. Uzomah does not have a catch on more than 100 offensive snaps in 2024.
DECEMBER 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Moves on up Uzomah signed with the Eagles' 53-man roster from their practice squad Wednesday.
Impact Uzomah has been elevated from the practice squad in each of Philadelphia's last three games, so he wasn't eligible to be promoted again. With Dallas Goedert (knee) considered week-to-week, the Auburn product's signing to the active roster was the only way for him to suit up Sunday against the Panthers.
DECEMBER 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Back to practice squad Uzomah reverted to the Eagles' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Impact Uzomah played 33 snaps (20 on offense, 13 on special teams) during the Eagles' 24-19 win over the Ravens on Sunday. Uzomah has reached the three-game maximum of elevations from the practice squad, but he could be signed to the Eagles' active roster if Dallas Goedert is placed on injured reserve due to a knee injury he suffered in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game. If Goedert does get placed on IR and Uzomah is signed to the active roster, the latter would be slated to serve as the Eagles' No. 2 tight end behind Grant Calcaterra.
DECEMBER 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Elevated again for Week 13 Uzomah was elevated from the Eagles' practice squad to their active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Ravens.
Impact Uzomah is getting elevated for a third straight week, and he's now reached the maximum of three elevations for the season. Philadelphia would need to sign him to the active roster in order for him to play for the team beyond this week. In his first two games with the club, Uzomah totaled 19 offensive snaps and did draw a target. He'll serve as the Eagles' No. 3 tight end behind Dallas Goedert and Grant Calcaterra on Sunday.
NOVEMBER 30, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Returns to practice squad Uzomah reverted to the Eagles' practice squad Monday, according to the NFL's official transaction log.
Impact Uzomah was elevated for the second week in a row to serve as the No. 3 tight end behind Dallas Goedert and Grant Calcaterra. In Philadelphia's 37-20 win over the Rams, he played on 16 of 73 offensive snaps and did not record a stat. The former Bengal and Jet, who signed with the Eagles in October, has yet to see a target on 19 offensive snaps through two games this season.
NOVEMBER 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Elevated for Week 12 The Eagles elevated Uzomah from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
Impact Uzomah will serve as the Eagles' No. 3 tight end behind Dallas Goedert and Grant Calcaterra for Sunday's game against the Rams. Uzomah was elevated for Week 11 against the Commanders and played three snaps on offense without recording a stat.

Eagles activate Britain Covey from Injured Reserve; elevate C.J. Uzomah from the practice squad The wide receiver/punt returner has missed seven games with a shoulder injury.
NOVEMBER 23, 2024 • PHILADELPHIAEAGLES.COM
Reverts to practice squad Uzomah reverted back to the Eagles' practice squad Friday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Impact Uzomah suited up for the Eagles' Week 11 win over the Commanders on Thursday night, playing just one offensive snap and failing to record a stat. He could rejoin Philadelphia's active roster as soon as Week 12's matchup against the Rams, as the Eagles are currently carrying just two tight ends: Grant Calcaterra and Dallas Goedert.
NOVEMBER 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Elevated for Thursay Night Football The Eagles elevated Uzomah from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Thursday night's game against Washington.
Impact Uzomah failed to make the Eagles' 53-man roster at the end of training camp, but he did manage to sign with the practice squad Oct. 10. He'll serve as the Eagles' No. 3 tight end Thursday behind Dallas Goedert and Grant Calcaterra.
NOVEMBER 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Receives another opportunity Uzomah signed with the Eagles' practice squad Thursday.
Impact Uzomah signed with Philadelphia as a free agent in April, but he was ultimately released by the team Aug. 21. He'll now join the franchise again, this time as a member of the practice squad, and work to earn a spot on their 53-man roster.
OCTOBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Gets cut loose Uzomah was released by the Eagles on Wednesday, EJ Smith of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Impact Uzomah's exit comes as a bit of a surprise after signing a one-year contract with the team in April. His departure will leave Albert Okwuegbunam, E.J. Jenkins, Kevin Koelsch and Armani Rogers battling for what will likely be one or two spots on the Eagles' final 53-man roster at tight end.

A person with knowledge of the decision says the New York Jets plan to release veteran tight end C
MARCH 5, 2024
Expected to go on IR Coach Robert Saleh said Monday that Uzomah (knee) will go on injured reserve.
Impact Uzomah sprained his MCL in Sunday's loss to the Falcons. Once he's officially placed on injured reserve, Uzomah will be sidelined for a minimum of four weeks, so he won't be eligible to play before Week 18 against the Patriots. Tyler Conklin and Jeremy Ruckert had already been working ahead of Uzomah and will remain New York's top two tight ends.
DECEMBER 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Suffers MCL sprain Uzomah suffered an MCL sprain during the Jets' 13-8 loss to the Falcons on Sunday, Rich Cimini of ESPN reports.
Impact Uzomah is in danger of missing time after exiting Sunday's game due to an MCL injury. The 2015 fifth-round pick has caught eight of 12 targets for 58 yards and a touchdown in eight games played this season.
DECEMBER 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Exits with knee issue Uzomah (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Falcons, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
Impact Uzomah seems to have sustained a knee injury early into the Jets' Week 13 contest, and Jeremy Ruckert will likely see increased offensive snaps for the time being.
DECEMBER 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Only catch by a TE in Week 8 Uzomah caught his only target for 19 yards in Sunday's 13-10 overtime win over the Giants.
Impact Uzomah was the only tight end to log a catch for the Jets in this one, as Tyler Conklin and Jeremy Ruckert combined for zero receptions on three targets. Uzomah has yet to see more than two targets in a game this season.
