Eagles claim tackle Jones
The team also signed a new assistant strength coach, Keith Gray, who had been at Georgia.
The Eagles claimed tackle D.J. Jones off waivers from the Baltimore Ravens, the team said Tuesday.
The Eagles also named Keith Gray assistant strength and conditioning coach to replace Roger Marandino, who became the head strength and conditioning coach with the Indianapolis Colts.
Jones, listed as 6-foot-5, 315 pounds, was an undrafted free agent who spent the first six weeks of last season on the Dolphins practice squad. He spent most of the rest of the season on Baltimore's practice squad and moved to the active roster in the final week of the season. He played tackle and guard at Nebraska in college.
Gray, 38, was the associate strength and conditioning coach at the University of Georgia. He played in college at Virginia Tech from 1991-94.
