The Eagles signed Gray to the practice squad Tuesday. Gray was battling through a shoulder injury during 49ers' training camp, and he was unable to make the 53-man roster. The 2022 third-round pick appeared in 13 regular-season games for San Francisco in his rookie year, posting one catch (on seven targets) for 10 yards while adding nine rushing yards on his lone carry. Gray will work to make another NFL appearance in his new home in Philadelphia.
Gray (undisclosed) was waived by the 49ers on Tuesday. Gray was held out of practice with an undisclosed issue Wednesday, and it's unclear if he was waived with an injury designation Tuesday. If he was ultimately waived/injured, then the 2022 third-round pick will hit waivers before reverting to San Francisco's IR if he goes unclaimed. If his waiver didn't include an injury designation, he'll become eligible to sign with a new team if he's not picked up off waivers. Gray did not appear in a game last season after being sidelined on IR with a shoulder injury until late December.
Gray was held out of Wednesday's practice due to an undisclosed injury, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports. The SMU product is likely fighting for a depth role in San Francisco's wide receiver room, so missing time likely hurts his chances of making the team's 53-man roster. With Gray sidelined again, expect Tay Martin and Robbie Chosen to see more reps in the preseason.
Gray (shoulder) was spotted working out during the 49ers' OTAs earlier this week. Gray, who missed all of San Francisco's 2023 campaign due to a shoulder injury, appears to be fully healthy once again as he participates in the team's OTAs. The 2022 third-round pick out of SMU saw limited work during his rookie season, tallying just 10 receiving yards and one reception through 13 games. With the 49ers adding Ricky Pearsall and Jacob Cowing in the 2024 NFL Draft, Gray will have to battle to earn a depth role in San Francisco's wide receiver room this offseason.
