Eagles add an intriguing prospect from the NFL International Player Pathway
The Eagles continue to invest in raw global talent with upside
The Philadelphia Eagles aren’t just building a roster. They’re building a pipeline. Shortly after the conclusion of the 2026 NFL Draft and their addition of Uar Bernard , general manager Howie Roseman followed through on a quiet but telling promise.
He said post-draft that he would add another International Player Pathway prospect to the mix. He kept that promise. This time, it came in the form of Joshua Weru, who joined Philadelphia as part of their undrafted rookie free agent class .

The Eagles have shown a clear willingness to invest in global talent, particularly players who may not come with traditional football resumes but offer rare physical tools and long-term upside.
