The Eagles signed Bell to the practice squad Wednesday.
The 2024 fourth-rounder was waived by the Patriots in late August after failing to make the team's 53-man roster, but he'll get another opportunity with the Eagles as a member of the practice squad. Bell could be elevated to the Eagles' active roster for Sunday's game against the Vikings if Grant Calcaterra (oblique) is unable to play. Bell mostly served on special teams across 15 regular-season games with the Patriots in 2024, though he did log two catches (on three targets) for 20 yards.

New England waived Bell on Friday, Evan Lazar of the team's official site reports.
The Patriots knew Bell was a developmental selection when nabbing him in the seventh round of the 2024 NFL Draft, so he seems a likely candidate to resurface on the practice squad if he goes unclaimed on waivers. Across 15 regular-season appearances as a rookie, Bell totaled two catches for 20 yards on three targets, and his one game with double-digit offensive snaps came Week 18 against Buffalo.
