He’s from Nigeria and has arrived through the NFL’s International Pathway Program.It’s now July, and the preseason is approaching, and Bernard is still certainly a question mark.In a new article on The Athletic, Zach Berman attempts to answer the obvious question: Will Bernard even make the team?MORE: Brandon Aiyuk’s latest decision probably ended his NFL careerPutting Bernard on the practice squad would let another team put him on their 53-man roster, so it’s not clear Philly would want to expose him like that.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementGiven the Eagles also have an overflow of QBs, something has to give, which Berman explains.”I don’t anticipate the Eagles keeping four quarterbacks and Uar Bernard on the roster,” Berman writes. “Whether it’s keeping three quarterbacks because of a trade or Cole Payton’s performance (or injury) in training camp/preseason, or a Bernard injury that allows the Eagles to stash him on injured reserve, it will sort itself out.”MORE: Jahmyr Gibbs, Bijan Robinson playing a funny game of chickenHe then breaks down the roster dilemmas for Bernard specifically.”I’m skeptical that the Eagles would be able to keep Bernard with the international player designation, which is essentially an extra practice squad spot,” Berman writes. “Another team might be inclined to sign him to the 53-man roster and stash him. It depends on how he looks this summer. But the Eagles showed with Jordan Mailata in 2018 and 2019 that they were not going to release a project with organizational investment, and I expect them to treat Bernard the same way. That might be a luxury spot on the roster (or a conveniently timed injury).”AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementBernard has immense potential, if he can learn football.It’d be a surprise for the Eagles to get rid of him before he even really has a chance.A.J.
