Philadelphia Eagles roster cuts: Deon Cain among most surprising waives from final 53-man roster

The Philadelphia Eagles had a topsy-turvy preseason. Howie Roseman's side suffered a defeat against the New York Jets in their preseason opener on August 13th. The Eagles then managed a narrow win over the Cleveland Browns a week later.

They were crushed by the Miami Dolphins 48-10 in their final preseason game. While the margin of defeat was an eye-opener, the results may have had an impact on Roseman's final 53-man roster.

With the season just over a week away from commencing, top analysts still feel the Eagles may clinch the NFC East division title. However, Roseman did surprise a few of us with his roster cuts on Tuesday.
