Latest news from Eagles camp


Tuesday, July 29

Training camp gets fans up close and personal to the teams they love. And then some. Take Ben Warren, a New Jersey resident who was behind the end zone taking in the action. He watched as quarterback Jalen Hurts ran in for a touchdown and then flipped the ball in his direction. The only issue? The ball came in hot and hit him in the nose, drawing blood. Warren spent the rest of the session dapping the blood with a towel, which is going to end up being a pretty sweet souvenir.

"[Eagles' senior adviser] Big Dom comes up and goes, 'You all right, buddy?' It made it even cooler," Warren said. "It's a pretty awesome story."


Monday, July 28

The first interception of camp came courtesy of cornerback Quinyon Mitchell. Jalen Hurts underthrew a long pass down the right side for A.J. Brown and Mitchell took advantage, hitting the breaks and pulling in the pass with one hand. Covering Brown has proven problematic for the defense this summer but Mitchell has had the most success to this point, staying stride-for-stride with the dynamic receiver for the most part, including on multiple reps Monday.

Mitchell is looking to build on his highly successful rookie campaign. His responsibilities are expected to increase in Year 2. Defensive coordinator Vic Fangio has him playing on both sides of the ball in practice, getting him ready for when he needs to shadow the opponent's top receiver.

More:

  • Standout defensive tackle Jalen Carter returned to practice in a limited capacity after sitting out the first few days with a shoulder injury.
  • Receiver Elijah Cooks made a highlight play for the second day in a row, elevating for a sideline grab with Adoree' Jackson in coverage.
  • Receiver DeVonta Smith did not practice due to back tightness. Hurts leaned on Brown and Dallas Goedert, who came up with some nice grabs, including one over the middle where he extended to haul in a pass with rookie Mac McWilliams tight on him.


Saturday, July 26

If you're looking for an Eagles player who could make a leap this season, keep a close eye on defensive tackle Moro Ojomo. Defensive coordinator Vic Fangio will lean on the third-year player to help replace the production of Milton Williams and has to be encouraged by what's seen to this point.

Ojomo spent a good chunk of Saturday's practice in the backfield applying pressure on quarterback Jalen Hurts while working primarily against right guard Tyler Steen. He registered a "sack" on Hurts and later batted down one of his passes. Philadelphia hasn't put on pads yet, so no need to get carried away, but there was a lot of internal buzz around Ojomo this offseason and his performance has done nothing to quiet it.

More:

  • Hurts didn't have his best day but dialed up a pair of red zone scores to wide receiver DeVonta Smith in succession. He later zipped a ball deep down the right sideline for A.J. Brown, who shook off tight coverage from cornerback Kelee Ringo to haul in the pass and then tossed the ball high in the air in celebration.

  • Ringo has given up a few big plays through the first days of camp. Most have come against Brown, one of the best players in the league, but his performance is worth monitoring as he competes with Adoree' Jackson for the outside corner spot opposite Quinyon Mitchell.

  • The practice ended on a highlight play from former Jaguars receiver Elijah Cooks. He fought through tight coverage from cornerback BJ Mayes and made a nice grab along the left side on a pass from rookie Kyle McCord, getting a roar from the crowd and his offensive teammates.


Thursday, July 24

Defensive coordinator Vic Fangio has designs to expand Cooper DeJean's role in Year 2. DeJean, whose star shot up following his pick-six of Patrick Mahomes in Super Bowl LIX, has been getting looks at safety in base packages to go along with his nickel corner duties. Fangio said he'll get reps at outside corner as well, as he searches for a way to keep DeJean on the field at all times. "I love a challenge," DeJean said after Thursday's practice.

"I did it a little bit in college, switching back and forth. The coaches are going to do what's best and put me where they think I fit best within the defense, and I trust them in doing that."

More:

  • Edge rusher Jalyx Hunt has been getting a lot of love from his teammates early on at camp. Left tackle Jordan Mailata said he "has tendencies like Micah [Parsons], to be able to cut on a dime like that," adding that Hunt is "going to be a star." Fellow edge rusher Nolan Smith struck a similar tone, saying Hunt was going to be "the best thing since sliced bread." The Eagles need someone to step up following the departure of Brandon Graham and Josh Sweat, and Hunt is the primary candidate to do so.

Wednesday, July 23

Training camp got off to a positive start on the health front as first-round pick linebacker Jihaad Campbell practiced in a limited capacity and participated in some team drills. Campbell is coming off shoulder surgery and wasn't expected on the field until sometime in August, defensive coordinator Vic Fangio said earlier this offseason, so he's ahead of schedule compared to at least that public timeline.

His involvement is all the more significant given Nakobe Dean will start camp on the physically unable to perform list as he continues to recover from a torn patellar tendon. First-team reps alongside Zack Baun are up for grabs, with Jeremiah Trotter Jr. getting first crack at it Wednesday.

More:

  • Defensive tackle Jalen Carter (shoulder) and guard Kenyon Green (knee) did not practice. The team is not expressing any long-term concern with respect to either player. Center Cam Jurgens, who had back surgery this offseason, was limited.

  • Kelee Ringo got the bulk of the first-team reps at right corner. He's competing with the likes of Adoree' Jackson for the starting post. A.J. Brown (who gets the best of just about everyone he goes against), elevated and snagged a sideline pass over Ringo for one of the day's top highlights.

  • Slot corner Cooper DeJean saw some time at safety when the Eagles were in their base package. Fangio said they'd experiment with that look earlier this offseason to ensure he has the best players on the field at all times.
