The Eagles signed defensive back Nate Meadors on Friday morning.

The 24-year-old Meadors spent nine games of the 2020 season on the Jacksonville Jaguars' practice squad. He was promoted to the active roster for one game, but did not play.

At 5-11, 194 pounds, Meadors played his college ball at UCLA and signed with the Minnesota Vikings as a rookie free agent in 2019. He didn't make the final roster, but signed to their practice squad and was promoted to the active roster in time to make his NFL debut against the Green Bay Packers in Week 2 before returning back to the practice squad.
