Jack Driscoll answers the call vs. Bills

PHILADELPHIA – Jack Driscoll got the call around noon on Sunday. On the other end of the line was Jeff Stoutland, the Eagles’ highly-regarded offensive line coach, who had a simple command. “Be ready to go,” the lovably gruff mentor barked. As a backup with experience, Driscoll is always a snap away so being ready

Inside A.J. Brown’s new world

PHILADELPHIA – When things are clicking with the Eagles’ offense, it’s usually pick your poison for opposing defensive coordinators. A fractured forearm, along with a 1,000-yard start over nine games for A.J. Brown has made that decision easier for most and Steve Spagnuolo came up with a plan that limited the Philadelphia offense to 238

Checks and balances helped Eagles overcome Chiefs

KANSAS CITY – Moments after a hard-fought 21-17 win over the Kansas City Chiefs, Nick Sirianni let loose in the narrow halls of what is now called GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium. The Eagles coach took aim at one reporter who predicted a Chiefs win because of the advantages of having a Hall of Fame

Eagles get back to work: Sign PS center and kick tires on Anthony Barr, Noah Togiai

PHILADELPHIA – The Eagles lost a pair of starters before the bye week when tight end Dallas Goedert (fractured forearm) and Mike linebacker Nakobe Dean (Lisfranc sprain) went down in a 28-23 win over Dallas. Dean is expected to be put on injured reserve this week and Goedert is a candidate for that as well

Injury hands Nicholas Morrow the spot he earned

PHILADELPHIA – Typically injuries aren’t helpful in the NFL but there could be a silver lining to Nakobe Dean’s latest foot problem for the Eagles — more playing time for Nicholas Morrow. The Eagles were trying to serve two masters with Dean, the second-year Mike linebacker, and things were progressing in a positive fashion, something

Paul Domowitch: Jalen Hurts is right back in the hunt for league MVP again

Jalen Hurts has played himself back into the NFL MVP conversation. His superb performances the last three weeks in wins over Miami, Washington, and Dallas, have him nipping at the heels of the man many consider the current frontrunner, Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson. Playing with a bone bruise on his knee that restricted his

Eagles send DT Kentavius Street to Falcons on eve of trade deadline

PHILADELPHIA – With the trade deadline looming in less than 24 hours, the Eagles made a minor move on Monday afternoon, sending veteran defensive tackle Kentavius Street to the Atlanta Falcons for what amounts to future draft positioning. The Eagles also gave Atlanta a 2025 seventh-round pick in the deal for a 2024 conditional sixth-round

Expect plenty of Kevin Byard at Washington

PHILADELPHIA – The Eagles acquired Kevin Byard from Tennessee on Monday and if you’re a betting man, put the mortgage payment down on the West Philadelphia native hitting the ground running next to fellow Middle Tennessee State product Reed Blankenship on the back end of Philadelphia’s sixth-ranked defense against Washington on Sunday. The ramp-up time

Defensive Front Has Masked Eagles’ Slot Problem

PHILADELPHIA – After Avonte Maddox was likely lost for the season in Week 2 with a torn pectoral muscle, the Philadelphia Eagles have seemingly rotated a cast of thousands while trying to lock down the slot cornerback position. Presumptive backup Zech McPhearson was already off the table for defensive coordinator Sean Desai because the third-year

Paul Domowitch: Nobody’s running on the Eagles

The Eagles’ defense did an impressive job Sunday against the Dolphins’ Greatest Show on Surf. It held Tua Tagovailoa to his lowest passer rating (87.5) of the season and held him to a season-low in passing yards (216). The group also held speed demon Tyreek Hill to 8.0 yards per catch, which equaled his lowest

All systems point to go with banged-up Jalen Hurts

PHILADELPHIA – Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is dealing with a left knee injury, but all indications are that the star quarterback will play Sunday at Washington. Philadelphia’s first practice report of the week on Wednesday was only an estimation because the team scaled back to a walkthrough but Hurts, who first banged up his knee

Friends Jalen Hurts and Tua Tagovailoa dismiss manufactured rivalry talk

PHILADELPHIA – When it comes to red shirts at Alabama, there is a dual meaning, the conventional football strategy of slowly ramping up freshmen who may not be quite ready to play and Nick Saban’s desire to teach his players how to handle the media by preventing access until the young men have been schooled

‘Mercenary Market’ is back: Eagles sign Julio Jones

PHILADELPHIA – The Mercenary Market is back in play for Howie Roseman and the Philadelphia Eagles. Two days after proving they were mortal, the 5-1 Eagles dipped into a ring-shopping Julio Jones to upgrade their receiving corps behind A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith. Philadelphia lacked depth at the position, to begin with, and will be

Nakobe Dean on verge of return to a better LB room than expected

PHILADELPHIA – In coaching parlance, it’s called a “good problem” to have. Instead of suffering in the absence of second-year Mike linebacker Nakobe Dean, the Eagles found a way to excel thanks to the stellar play of veteran Nicholas Morrow. Now Dean is on the verge of returning to the lineup after sitting out four
