The Eagles issued a statement following the robbery advising that the team was aware of the situation and have been in contact with Pascal, according to Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio.

An undrafted free agent, Pascal first signed on with the Washington Redskins in 2017 before he was waived and caught on with the Tennessee Titans, where he made his debut in the NFL.

His first touchdown came the following year after was brought in by the Indianapolis Colts, where he played for four seasons before being signed by the Eagles for the 2022 season. In Philly this year, Pascal notched 15 receptions and tallied one touchdown as a reserve receiver, though he appeared in all 17 games for the team, including two starts.
