Philadelphia Eagles sign TE Jaheim Bell

The Eagles signed Bell to a practice squad deal, adding a versatile tight end prospect with athletic upside that the Steelers had developed but didn't retain. Media coverage highlights Bell as a "freak athlete" with potential, but the practice squad designation and lack of guaranteed roster commitment suggest Philadelphia views him as a developmental prospect rather than an immediate contributor. This represents a low-risk, high-upside flier that creates depth optionality without disrupting the team's current tight end hierarchy or cap structure.
