Braxton Miller will be the highlight of the Philadelphia Eagles revamped practice squad this week, as the team adds another wide receiver to their roster. Per Alex Gleitman of 247Sports, Miller is expected to sign with the Eagles and be placed on their practice squad this week, pending a physical.

Miller was selected by the Texans in the third round of the 2016 NFL Draft. As a rookie, Miller played in 10 games, starting six, and recorded 15 receptions for 99 yards and a touchdown. Miller's year was cut short when he suffered a shoulder injury in Week 13 and was placed on injured reserve.

In his second season with the Texans, Miller played in 11 games but started only three. He had 19 catches for 162 yards and a touchdown. Coming into training camp this year, there were already questions about whether or not the third-year player would make the roster. In the preseason, Miller had three catches in each of the three games he played for a total of 94 yards and a touchdown.

In two NFL seasons, Miller has 34 catches for 261 yards and two touchdowns. Miller was a quarterback for the majority of his time at Ohio State from 2011 to 2014, throwing for 5,295 yards, 52 touchdowns and 17 interceptions. He also rushed for 3,315 yards and 33 touchdowns. Miller spent his final year at Ohio State as a receiver, catching 25 passes for 340 yards and three touchdowns.

The Eagles released Greg Ward and Rashard Davis from the practice squad Friday in a series of roster moves, so a move for Miller was coming. Ward was the hybrid quarterback/wide receiver on the Eagles practice squad for the last two seasons (played quarterback in college at Houston), but Miller will replace him in that role while competing for a spot at the 53-man roster.

The Eagles need all the help they can get at wide receiver and the addition of Miller will help as he stakes some time to learn the system. Alshon Jeffery is "day-to-day" as he recovers from rotator cuff surgery while Mack Hollins was placed on injured reserve with a groin injury.

Philadelphia has Mike Wallace, Shelton Gibson, Nelson Agholor, DeAndre Carter and Markus Wheaton as the wide receivers on the active roster. The Eagles wide receivers struggled mightily in the season opener against the Atlanta Falcons, having just 44 yards on 16 targets in the 18-12 victory. Agholor led the way with eight catches for 33 yards while Carter had one catch for 10 yards.

Wallace was targeted three times, not having a catch in the contest. Wallace was open on two deep passes, but was held on one play and Nick Foles threw a bad pass when Wallace had a step on Robert Alford in the fourth quarter.

The Eagles are hoping Miller will help down the road. They have two more practice squad spots to fill.
