Eagles' Kevon Seymour: Elevated to active roster
Rotowire
Seymour was elevated to the active roster Saturday, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.
After ample time away from an NFL team, the Eagles have added Seymour to the 53-man roster. The cornerback missed the entirety of the 2018 season after undergoing double-labrum repair surgery and was unable to earn a roster spot with the Panthers for the 2019 season. Seymour will add a depth role to the Eagles' defense and should assist Darius Slay, Avonte Maddox and Nickell Robey-Coleman in Sunday's game.

Panthers' Kevon Seymour: Heading south
Rotowire
Seymour was dealt to the Panthers from the Bills on Saturday in exchange for wide receiver Kaelin Clay and a seventh-round selection in the 2019 NFL Draft, Joe Buscaglia of 7 WKBW reports.
Seymour was going to finish third in a battle with Shareece Wright and E.J. Gaines for the vacant starting cornerback spot in Buffalo, so the Bills unloaded him for a position of greater need. He's talented enough to perhaps work his way into the nickel corner spot for the Panthers.

Bills' Kevon Seymour: Competition lurks
Rotowire
The Bills drafted cornerback Tre'Davious White -- who will presumably compete with Seymour for starting cornerback duties -- with the 27th overall pick in the draft last week.
Seymour was listed as a starting corner opposite Ronald Darby once Stephon Gilmore bolted to the Patriots, but the Bills obviously have big plans for White as they try to restock a depleted secondary. White doesn't have superstar skills even though he's expected to be a solid NFL contributor, so if he's slow to pick up the game, then Seymour could still be a Week 1 starter. And with a new coach in town, many of the starting spots are going to come down to summer performances anyway.

Bills' Kevon Seymour: Big opportunity for second-year corner
Rotowire
With Stephon Gilmore moving on to the Patriots, Seymour is currently listed as a starting corner opposite Ronald Darby, BuffaloBills.com reports. "Last year I had a nice opportunity to get my feet wet and get the understanding of what being a starter felt like," Seymour said. "Now, the opportunity is here and I'm going to take full advantage of it as much as I can and I'm definitely excited about that."
Seymour was just a sixth-round pick out of USC during last year's draft, but he quickly out-kicked the coverage in terms of slotting and now he's got a good chance to start. The Bills will probably replenish their secondary in the draft, but with wideout and safety being bigger needs, Seymour's almost certain to be the favorite to start. We'll see how he does picking up new coach Sean McDermott's defense.

Bills' Kevon Seymour: Expected to start vs. Jets
Rotowire
Seymour is expected to start at cornerback Sunday against the Jets with regular starter Stephon Gilmore out with a concussion, BuffaloBills.com reports. "He's getting better," interim head coach Anthony Lynn said of Seymour. "It seemed like every week and even though I was on the offensive side of the ball before I became the head coach, you notice guys on the defense that stand out, and especially on scout team when they're covering your receivers, and he's done a heck of a job all year, and he's had a great week of practice so far."
Seymour is a sixth-round rookie to of USC who's out-kicked the coverage compared to his draft selection, and the start shows he's bypassed a few others in the secondary. He's also started two other games this season, though with no picks in 2016 and no game with more than three tackles, he's not quite there yet from an IDP perspective.

Bills' Kevon Seymour: High-profile opportunity
Rotowire
Seymour stands a good chance of starting at cornerback for Buffalo's upcoming game in Oakland, The Buffalo News reports. "It's a big step," said the rookie from USC. "Big responsibility, filling in for Darby and being that corner the team is relying on. I'm excited for it."
Regular starter Ronald Darby has a concussion and hasn't even started practicing again, while normal backup Corey White may be needed in more of a utility role. Hence, Seymour appears likely to see the field quite a bit, and he could accrue a few tackles along the way against Oakland's passing-friendly attack.

Seymour practiced on a limited basis for the third straight day Friday after suffering a shoulder injury against the 49ers last week, and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Miami.
