Today won’t be quiet after all. Another Tuesday brought news of Doc Rivers’ firing as the 76ers’ head coach. The Western Conference Finals are set to begin, but as you may expect, the Philadelphia Eagles are busy as well. They announced the addition of a six-foot-one, 181-pound wideout. His name is Charleston Rambo. Tackle Jarrid Williams has been released in a subsequent move.
Philly’s roster sits at the allowable 90 men. 85 are on the active unit. Four rookie draftees remain unsigned (Sydney Brown, Nolan Smith, Kelee Ringo, and Tyler Steen). Josh Sills is the 90th man. He is currently away from the team and has been given a special roster exemption. Let’s talk a little about Mr. Rambo.
The Philadelphia Eagles’ battle at wide receiver will be interesting throughout training camp. Currently, they have ten on the roster:Olamide Zaccheaus, Quez Watkins, Greg Ward,DeVonta Smith, Joseph Ngata, Jadon Haselwood, Britain Covey, Tyrie Cleveland,A.J. Brown, Devon Allen, and Rambo.
Here are a few intriguing facts pertaining to the new guy.
Charleston Rambo and Jalen Hurts were teammates in college.
It’s great to enter a situation where you’re a wide receiver and your quarterback is already a legitimate MVP candidate. One might imagine that having your signal-caller be a former teammate is also a plus.
Rambo and Hurts were teammates at Oklahoma in 2019. Ramo caught 79 passes and seven TDs that season. It’s doubtful that anyone will complain if these two find some magic in Philly.
While he hasn’t manufactured any professional stats yet, Rambo did spend some time with the Carolina Panthers in 2022. He was waived on August 30th of that year, but make no mistake about it. Having already experienced an NFL training camp gives him some experience some rookies don’t have.
He was most recently seen in the XFL.
The jury is still out on whether spring football can work, but the XFL was reimagined to give some of those ’54th players’ an opportunity, and after spending some time with the Orlando Guardians, Charleston Rambo has been given a second opportunity in the NFL. Time will tell if it pays off.
In a word, Johnny Wilson is big. The Florida State wide receiver who was picked by the Eagles in the sixth round of the 2024 NFL Draft, No. 185 overall, is 6' 6 3/8" and weighs 231 pounds.
It was February 4, 2018, when the Philadelphia Eagles won their first-ever NFL Super Bowl Championship. For the team, the city, and the fans, the world changed as the Philadelphia Eagles will forever be Super Bowl LII Champions.
Adults measure from 30 to 40 inches from head to tail, with a 7-8 foot wingspan, and weigh from 8 to 14 pounds. The female is larger than the male. The distinctive white head and tail feathers appear when the eagles mature at 4 or 5 years old. Bald eagles are believed to live 30 years or longer in the wild.

Among the NFL's current 32 teams, 20 (11 NFC, nine AFC) have won a Super Bowl and 15 (eight AFC, seven NFC) hold multiple titles. The AFC's Pittsburgh Steelers and New England Patriots have the most Super Bowl titles at six each. The Patriots also have the most Super Bowl appearances at 11.

The Eagles are one of the world's most popular bands in history. The legendary artists have achieved 14 Top 40 hits, five number-one singles and four number one albums. Their 1976 album Hotel California is the third best-selling album of all time.
