Dallas signed Grier to its practice squad Tuesday, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports. Grier was cut from the Eagles' practice squad less than a week ago, but now he's getting a chance to make an impression with their division rival. Assuming both Cooper Rush and Trey Lance stay healthy though, it's unlikely Grier will join the active roster any time soon.

Dallas signed Grier to its practice squad Tuesday, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports. Grier was cut from the Eagles' practice squad less than a week ago, but now he's getting a chance to make an impression with their division rival. Assuming both Cooper Rush and Trey Lance stay healthy though, it's unlikely Grier will join the active roster any time soon.
Philadelphia cut Grier from its practice squad Thursday. Grier was brought onto the Eagles' practice squad just before the start of the regular season, but now he's headed back to free agency. He'll have to look for his next opportunity to make an impression elsewhere.
Grier signed with the Eagles' practice squad Wednesday. The 2019 third-round pick lost the Eagles' No. 2 quarterback battle to both Kenny Pickett and Tanner McKee during the preseason, but Grier will remain on the team's practice squad. Grier most recently appeared in an NFL game in 2019 with the Panthers, throwing for 228 yards and four interceptions across two contests.
The Eagles let go of Grier on Monday. Grier inked a one-year deal with Philadelphia back in March, but the team looks to be rolling with Kenny Pickett as the top backup to Jalen Hurts, with rookie sixth-round pick Tanner McKee available as the No. 3 option. Now, for his part, Grier will be free to search for a reserve gig elsewhere in the league.
The Eagles signed Grier to a one-year deal Saturday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. The 100th overall pick in the 2019 draft by the Panthers, Grier is joining his sixth team since entering the NFL. He hasn't appeared in a regular-season game since his rookie season when he started two contests for Carolina, completing 28 of 52 passes (53.8 percent) for 228 yards, zero touchdowns and four interceptions. In all likelihood, Grier will be a camp quarterback for the Eagles behind Jalen Hurts and newcomer Kenny Pickett.
