The Eagles signed Philadelphia Soul wide receiver Darius Prince on Saturday, adding depth to a position that's been depleted by injuries this summer.

They waived defensive lineman Adam Reth.

Prince, 28, had 89 catches for 1,076 yards and 24 touchdowns for the Soul this season. He was named the MVP of the Arena Bowl in 2017.

Prince, who is listed at 6-foot-1 and 185 pounds, played college basketball at Penn State-Beaver. He's never been in an NFL camp.

The Eagles have injured receivers up and down the depth chart. Alshon Jeffery, Nelson Agholor, and Markus Wheaton all missed Thursday's preseason game. Bryce Treggs and Kamar Aiken departed with injuries.
