The Philadelphia Eagles announced on Tuesday that they have claimed former Dolphins, Falcons, Lions, and Panthers DE Charles Harris off of waivers.
Harris was a 2017 first-round pick who was a popular projection to the Eagles during the leadup to that draft. The Eagles selected Derek Barnett 16th overall, and Harris went 22nd overall to the Dolphins. He has had a disappointing career for a first-round pick, with his best season coming in 2021 with the Lions. His career stats:
| Year - Team | Tackles | Sacks | FF | QB hits |
| 2017 - MIA | 19 | 2 | 0 | 12 |
| 2018 - MIA | 19 | 1 | 0 | 5 |
| 2019 - MIA | 23 | 0.5 | 0 | 6 |
| 2020 - ATL | 18 | 3 | 0 | 5 |
| 2021 - DET | 64 | 7.5 | 2 | 16 |
| 2022 - DET | 14 | 1 | 1 | 4 |
| 2023 - DET | 13 | 1.5 | 0 | 5 |
| 2024 - CAR | 21 | 3 | 0 | 7 |
| TOTAL | 192 | 19.5 | 3 | 60 |
The Panthers waived Harris on Monday.
The Eagles are trying to bolster their edge rusher depth after losing Brandon Graham for the season with a torn triceps. They announced that Graham is heading to IR to make room for Harris.
The Eagles also signed second-year pro K.J. Henry to the practice squad earlier in the day.
