"Eagles fans remember that Clement had 100 yards receiving in the Super Bowl win over the Patriots. "Saturday's daily COVID testing returned several positives tests from each of the clubs serviced by the same laboratory in New Jersey. Miller faces the same logjam that he did last season now that Vinny Curry is back. So, yes, as many reps as possible in the spring would have helped.Dillard has one advantage in that he learned from Peters last season and started three games when Peters hurt his knee. The Eagles had no speed at wide receiver after the injuries to DeSean Jackson, Jeffery and Nelson Agholor. Will Parks has played the position before, so he might have an early leg up on a starting job.The Eagles' fourth-round pick last year wasn't on the game-day roster at all last season.
I’m comfortable wherever the coaches put me.”Pryor and Big V were teammates at TCU, and Big V parlayed his versatility into a starting spot in place of Peters in the Super Bowl and a $45 million contract with the Lions.Pryor believes he can be the same sort of swing player that Big V was. We just don’t know how good he is.He’s big and tough and strong and definitely not lacking in confidence.
And then during the season, I’d jump in when some of the starters were trying to get a little recovery in. If Clement is healthy, he'll be valuable on special teams and as a third running back.Riley was acquired in an under-the-radar trade with the Atlanta Falcons last October, and immediately became a solid special teams performer.But Riley could have a prominent role at linebacker this season.
“Me, whatever opportunity I get, I’m about to take. Reblog That would have left the snaps to Hurts and Nate Sudfeld, providing valuable experience for Hurts.It's likely that Hurts will start the season as the third quarterback, unless he can prove quickly that he can master the offense.It's well known that Dillard is taking over for Peters at left tackle this season.
I’d go in at left guard, left tackle, right guard, right tackle.
… The more reps I get, the better I’m going to improve at it. But again, it all comes down to repetitions. Last year I got reps on both sides at guard and tackle. No matter after a win or a loss, Pederson seems to have the formula down to get the Eagles prepared. Here's a look at who was helped the most, and hurt the most heading into the start of on-field practices:When the season ended back in January, it was expected that Jones' days as an Eagle were coming to an end, another second-round pick who didn't pan out.But the Eagles revamped their secondary, trading for Darius Slay while letting Ronald Darby leave as a free agent and moving Jalen Mills to safety.
So I’m comfortable with that.”Pryor, a sixth-round pick in 2018, got his first career playing time last year in the first Seattle game, after Dillard got benched and Halapoulivaati Vaitai moved from right guard to right tackle. During the offseason, Nigel Bradham was released and Kamu Grugier-Hill left as a free agent. Once your body gets a certain amount of reps, your body kind of gets used to jumping around.
The Eagles have a strict, NFL-approved cleaning and distancing protocol in place at the NovaCare Complex and have not had any confirmed positive tests since training camp began last weekend.Pelissero said several teams changed their practice schedules on Sunday after the numerous positive tests, even though league medical officials suspected the results were not accurate.The Bears and the Browns both released statements confirming that they had either cancelled or delayed practice.Bills general manager Brandon Beane told reporters in Buffalo that the NFL told him there were “10 or 11” teams affected by the testing irregularities.But the Eagles began practice as scheduled at 10:30 a.m. But Riley could certainly become the third linebacker.This was supposed to be an important offseason for Mailata, the Australian import who's entering his third season.Mailata, who never played football before he was drafted, was on injured reserve with a back injury last season. Then he made his first start in the Seattle playoff game in place of Brooks.But even though he barely has any experience, he has more experience than the other backup linemen — Sua Opeta, Nate Herbig, Jack Driscoll, Prince Tega Wanogho, Luke Juriga and Julian Good-Jones.“During the offseason I really put the grind in to better understand the playbook,” he said. Mills, of course, is not in danger of getting cut.
He definitely needs as much "grass time" as possible. That capped a strong rookie year for the undrafted free agent in 2017. The other laboratories used for NFL testing have not had similar results.
