Nichols, 23, is a former seventh-round pick of the Packers back in 2023. He agreed to a four-year rookie contract, but was later waived with an injury designation and reverted to injured reserve.

Nichols would later sign on to the Eagles’ practice squad. He returned to Philadelphia last year on a futures contract but was on and off of their roster. Nichols signed another futures deal with the Eagles this offseason but was waived in July.
