Eagles sign WR Braxton Miller to practice squad

Former Houston Texans wide receiver Braxton Miller joined the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday.

Miller, a third-round pick in 2016, was one of three wide receivers signed to the practice squad by the Eagles. Tight end Billy Brown was released from the practice squad.

Miller was converted from quarterback at Ohio State to slot receiver with Houston. The 25-year-old had nine starts in 21 career games with the Texans and caught 34 passes for 261 yards and two touchdowns.

The Eagles are also hosting former Baltimore Ravens first-round pick Breshad Perriman, according to multiple reports. Perriman battled injuries and was released by the Ravens, who selected him in the first round of the 2015 draft.

Perriman, 25, played in 27 games in three seasons and has 43 career receptions.
