Eagles sign TE Dan Arnold

The former undrafted free agent out of UW–Platteville spent a few years in New Orleans before having a somewhat prominent role with the Cardinals in 2020. That season, Arnold hauled in 31 receptions for 438 yards and four touchdowns in 16 games (five starts).

That performance earned him a two-year contract from the Panthers, but he only got into three games with his new team before getting shipped to the Jaguars in the C.J. Henderson trade. The tight end had 324 yards in eight games with Jacksonville to finish up the 2021 campaign, but with Evan Engram added to the mix for 2022, Arnold finished his only full season in Jacksonville with 135 receiving yards.

The Eagles have a long list of tight ends behind starter Dallas Goedert, including Jack Stoll, Grant Calcaterra and Dalton Keene. Pro Football Focus has never been all that favorable of Arnold’s blocking ability but has given him solid marks for his receiving skills, so Arnold could perhaps carve out a role as a pass-catching option behind Goedert.
