Tuesday was a pretty busy day for the Eagles considering how close to roster cuts we are getting.

The day started out with the team switching out linebackers on the roster.

Later on, the Eagles got a scare with DeSean Jackson breaking a finger during a workout.

Now, the Eagles have made a change to the defensive backs room.

The Eagles have signed safety Jason Thompson and waived Tre Sullivan.

Sullivan is a bit of a surprise cut because of how well he filled in during the Eagles playoff run last season.

That said, Sullivan did not have a good camp and this was his third preseason with the team.

Thompson was an untreated free agent two years ago and has spent time with the New England Patriots, Chicago Bears, Seattle Seahawks, Dallas Cowboys and Atlanta Falcons.

He has yet to appear in an NFL game.
