Cole Wisniewski: Waived by Eagles
Wisniewski (hamstring) was waived by the Eagles on Sunday.
Philadelphia waived a pair of rookie draft picks Sunday, including Wisniewski. The safety out of Texas Tech had an uphill battle to make the roster due to the depth of the Eagles' secondary. Wisniewski will now go on waivers and will be a free agent if he goes unclaimed.

Eagles' Cole Wisniewski: Absent with hamstring issue
Wisniewski (hamstring) did not participate in Saturday's practice session, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.
It is unclear when Wisniewski picked up the hamstring issue, but it does not help his case as the safety attempts to climb the depth chart. The rookie seventh-rounder was selected for his athleticism. At 6-foot-3, 219 pounds, Wisniewski is perfectly built to defend the run. The issue comes in NFL-level processing speed and consistency, and if the strong safety is absent from practice, he will be unable to develop or display those traits.

Eagles' Cole Wisniewski: Picked by Philadelphia
The Eagles selected Wisniewski in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 244th overall.
Wisniewski probably is not a serious starting safety candidate at the NFL level, but at 6-foot-3, 219 pounds the Texas Tech product has the build to crash hard against the run from the strong safety position. His 2025 season with the Red Raiders was his sixth collegiate season after playing the prior five years at North Dakota State, mostly as a backup. The Eagles will probably be content if Wisniewski can simply play on special teams.
