Hennessy (back) was released by the Eagles on Tuesday, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports. Hennessy tended to a back injury during training camp. However, he was let go without an injury designation, so he should be considered healthy.
Hennessy (back) did not participate at practice Saturday, Andrew DiCecco of InsideTheBirds.com reports. The precise severity of Hennessy's back injury is unknown at this point. Once he's ready to play again, he figures to play a depth role on the interior of Philadelphia's offensive line in 2024.
Hennessy (knee) was an active participant at the Eagles' OTAs this past week, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports. Hennessy was unavailable for the entirety of the 2023 campaign with a knee injury, but he looks to be a full go ahead of 2024. The 26-year-old will likely operate as a depth option behind Landon Dickerson and Tyler Steen at offensive guard this season.
Hennessy (knee) is slated to sign a one-year contract with the Eagles, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports. Hennessy missed all of the 2023 campaign due to a knee injury, but he has starting experience with the Falcons at both guard and center. He should bolster the depth of Philadelphia's offensive line next season.
