Key Points:

- Right tackle Lane Johnson retired earlier this week, and guard/center Cam Jurgens was traded to the Baltimore Ravens on Wednesday.
- Tanner McKee has replaced Dalton as the Eagles' No. 2 quarterback, with rookie Cole Payton also on the 53-man roster.
- The Eagles needed to free up a roster spot ahead of their Sunday game against the Jaguars in London, amid multiple injuries and roster adjustments.
- Dalton, acquired from the Panthers in March, had only one pass attempt with the Eagles, which resulted in an interception in Week 3.
