Epps was activated from the Eagles' COVID-19 exempt list Friday, Mike Kaye of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.

EDGE Analysis

Epps spent 13 days on the reserve/COVID-19 list, but he's been cleared for a crucial Week 11 road trip to Cleveland. With seven appearances and two starts to his name, the Wyoming product has recorded 19 tackles and one pass deflection in 2020. His defensive role has been inconsistent week-to-week, but with both starting safeties Jalen Mills and Rodney McLeod in line to play, Epps will likely be deployed as a rotational contributor in the secondary against the Browns.

Philadelphia activated Epps off the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

EDGE Analysis

Epps tested positive for the virus Nov. 5, so the fact that he was fully cleared is a positive sign. Epps is currently on an exempt list, so the Eagles will need to clear roster space in order for the Wyoming product to return to the field.

Epps tested positive for COVID-19 on Thursday and was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Epps is reportedly asymptomatic, as he and the team will enter intensive protocols. The Eagles enter their bye week for Week 9, as Epps will need to turn in at least two negative tests across two days in order to gain clearance to return to the field.

Epps (rib) upgraded to full practice participation Wednesday and doesn't carry an injury designation into Thursday's game against the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Epps was forced to miss his first game of the season last week against Baltimore due to the rib injury but appears back to full health. The fact that the Wyoming product will play is a positive sign for the depth at safety for the Eagles, especially considering K'Von Wallace (shoulder) was already ruled out for the contest.

Epps (ribs) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Ravens.

EDGE Analysis

Epps has played every game this season, including two starts, but he was unable to practice this week and will watch from the sidelines. The second-year safety has recorded 17 tackles and two pass breakups, and now rookie K'Von Wallace likely will handle more reps with the No. 8 scoring offense coming to town.

Epps (lower body) is not listed on Wednesday's injury report.

EDGE Analysis

Epps dealt with a lower body injury during training camp, but he's shed the issue heading into the regular season. He'll provide the Eagles with a reserve safety option during Sunday's season opener against Washington.

Epps is considered day-to-day with a lower body injury, Mike Kaye of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.

EDGE Analysis

Epps presumably picked up the injury at practice. The severity of the issue is unclear, but a quick return would be advantageous, as he is competing to earn a role providing depth at free safety on the team's final roster. The 24-year-old suited up six times for Philly last season.

The Eagles claimed Epps off waivers from the Vikings on Thursday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

The move comes one day after the Vikings plucked Andrew Sendejo off waivers from the Eagles, so essentially the two clubs exchanged safeties. Epps, a rookie sixth-round pick, played predominantly in a special-teams role with the Vikings. However, Sendejo leaves behind a steady workload in Philly, so Epps has the opportunity to compete with Rudy Ford for opportunities on defense.

Epps was waived by Minnesota on Wednesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Vikings needed to clear a roster spot after claiming Andrew Sendejo off waivers, and Epps wound up being the unlucky victim. Epps has played sparingly on special teams this season and was inactive last game. If he goes unclaimed, Minnesota may look to add the young safety to its practice squad.

The Vikings selected Epps in the sixth round of the 2019 NFL Draft, 191st overall.

EDGE Analysis

Epps (6-foot, 197 pounds) wasn't invited to the combine, but he was a very productive four-year starter on a Wyoming defense that became quite good in the last two years. Epps showed well for himself at his pro day, too, supplementing an adequate 4.55 40 with a 38.5-inch vertical, 124-inch broad jump, and 10.84 agility score. He might compete for defensive snaps surprisingly early since presumed starter Anthony Harris is unproven.
