The Eagles announced they signed cornerback Parry Nickerson to their practice squad on Tuesday afternoon.

Nickerson, who spent Training Camp with the team in the summer after being signed in June, will return to the team after a spot opened up on the practice squad.

Nickerson was drafted in the sixth round of the 2018 draft by the Jets out of Tulane. He has played in 30 games for the Jets, Jaguars (2019), Packers (2020), Vikings (2021), and Dolphins (2023) in his NFL career.

The 5-foot-10, 179-pound corner played in five games under Defensive Coordinator Vic Fangio while in Miami.

Nickerson earned a spot on the roster in June after a successful minicamp tryout.

The Algiers, Louisiana, native played for five years at Tulane, starting 46 games and totaling 188 tackles, 16 interceptions, 31 passes defended, and two touchdowns. Nickerson earned second-team All-American honors from Sports Illustrated during his senior season.

The Eagles have now filled the 17th and final spot on the practice squad.
