Griffin Hebert: WR – Louisiana Tech

Griffin Hebert initially signed with the Eagles in December 2023 and was delegated to the practice squad. He then signed a futures contract in January before the Eagles released him after the NFL Draft in April. Hebert received a tryout invitation during minicamp but left without a contract offer.

Griffin Herbert played five years of college ball with Louisiana Tech and was used primarily as a wide receiver over his first four years before switching over tight end his final season.

He went undrafted in 2023 and initially signed with the Seattle Seahawks before making his way to the Philadelphia. Herbert is a freak athlete and posted the second-highest vertical in the ’23 draft class behind Zack Kuntz of Old Dominion.
