Things to watch for at Eagles training camp: Interior defensive line edition
PhillyVoice • • sports
Key Points:
- The Philadelphia Eagles' interior defensive line (iDL) features a strong trio of Jalen Carter, Jordan Davis, and Moro Ojomo, considered one of the best in the NFL, though depth behind them remains a concern.
- Jalen Carter struggled in 2025 due to shoulder injuries and contract uncertainty, skipping voluntary OTAs and not fully participating in minicamp, raising questions about his availability and impact for the 2026 season.
- Jordan Davis had a standout 2025 season with 72 tackles and leadership recognition, earning a lucrative contract, while Moro Ojomo emerged as a reliable pass rusher and is entering the final year of his rookie deal.
- Depth players Byron Young, Ty Robinson, Gabe Hall, Ta'Quon Graham, and Zion Wilson offer rotational potential, though some, like Robinson and Bernard (a raw rookie from Nigeria), are still developing and expected to face challenges.
- The Eagles' interior defensive line, alongside their offensive tackles and cornerbacks, is considered a positional strength as they head into the 2026 training camp and season.
