He suffered a torn patella tendon on the Week 1 opening kickoff against the Cowboys last year, after recovering from a torn ACL sustained the season prior.
The Eagles were enamored with VanSumeren's athleticism and wanted to utilize him on offense, but those plans never came to fruition. Across his career, VanSumeren has appeared in 22 offensive snaps, 50 on defense, and 394 on special teams.
