#Eagles rookie OL Dylan McMahon his heading to Los Angeles to sign with the #Rams’ active roster, off Philly’s practice squad, per sources.

#Rams essentially got an extra 6th round pick here for free as Dylan McMahon was cut from the Eagles 53-man roster. Can imagine they loved both Limmer and McMahon during the pre-draft process. Similar type players with inside positional versatility.
Nsehke?! Is this for real? He had a short stint with the Rams in St Louis before bouncing around the league including another stop with the Rams in LA. No idea what kind of shape he’s in or if he can play, but man these next few weeks are really going to test McVay.
Needing more help on the offensive line following a knee injury suffered by Steve Avila in Week 1, the Los Angeles Rams went to the Philadelphia Eagles practice squad for reinforcements, signing rookie center Dylan McMahon on Tuesday. The Eagles drafted McMahon with the 190th pick in the sixth round out of North Carolina State this year but he was one of Philadelphia’s “surprise cuts” after a “strong summer” according to Victor Williams of “The Philly Pod”
McMahon is a good athlete and Eric Galko noted that he had “a great career, great Shrine Bowl, great NFL combine” after playing both guard positions and center in college. The Eagles needed another center after Jason Kelce retired but right now they don’t have anyone officially backing up starter Cam Jurgens. Presumably Landon Dickerson might move over if the Eagles needed a center and they didn’t protect McMahon if a team like the Rams wanted to poach him off of the practice squad.

– Signed OL Christian to 53-man roster
– Signed C McMahon off Eagles PS
– Put Avila, Nacua and Noteboom on IR
– Cut Taylor + Blake Larson from PS

Are the guys signed to the PS safe for at least this week or could another team potentially sign them to their active roster?

Rams protected Nsekhe and Witherspoon on their practice squad so they can’t be poached this week. Anyone else on the PS can be, though.
