Milton was waived by the Cowboys on Sept. 1 and placed on their practice squad two days later with Sam Howell being named the backup.
Milton will likely join Tanner McKee and rookie Cole Payton on the Eagles’ active roster.
The move comes after news broke Thursday that Hurts would be out indefinitely with a superficial blood clot.
McKee will likely be the Eagles’ starter for the time being.
