Eagles Training Camp Practice Notes: Some hints for the final preseason game?
Key Points:
- The Philadelphia Eagles concluded their 17-day training camp with a light, no-pads practice, featuring several players either sidelined or limited due to injuries, including TE Eli Stowers (hamstring) and CB Jonathan Jones (shoulder).
- Key players Landon Dickerson and Mac McWilliams returned to full participation, though Dickerson showed signs of physical decline, raising concerns about his return to Pro Bowl form.
- Quarterback Jalen Hurts displayed mixed performance during drills, with some accurate short completions but occasional overthrows and timing issues, while backup quarterbacks Tanner McKee and Andy Dalton showed promising moments in the competition.
- Rookie and younger players had varied outcomes, with standout performances from Jalyx Hunt and Keyshawn James-Newby amid struggles from others like Cam Latu and Shaun Wade; Dameon Pierce impressed but may be limited to the practice squad due to missed time.
- The team prepared for the upcoming game against the Cincinnati Bengals with walkthroughs including players like DeVonta Lemon, who is expected to see some playing time despite earlier confusion on the field.
