The Eagles announced that they are activating CB Avonte Maddox from injured reserve and elevating LB Christian Elliss to the active roster.

Maddox, 26, was a fourth-round pick by the Eagles out of Pittsburgh back in the 2018 NFL Draft.

He played out a four-year, $3,085,914 rookie contract with the Eagles, that included a $625,914 signing bonus, $625,914 guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $771,479.

Maddox later agreed to terms on a three-year, $22.5 million extension that includes $13.3 million in guaranteed money and will keep him in Philadelphia through 2024.

In 2022, Maddox has appeared in six games for the Eagles, recording 27 tackles and one interception.
