PHILADELPHIA – “This is 40” for the venerable Jason Peters looks like it’s going to be a homecoming for the nine-time Pro Bowl selection. Peters is a Queen City, Texas native, a small town in the northeastern part of the Lone Star state just under three hours from Dallas if you’re getting into the car
PHILADELPHIA – The Eagles watched Reid Sinnett and Carson Strong all summer and felt the need for more. Although Sinnett was ultimately brought back to the practice squad after being waived, Howie Roseman wanted a little bit more at the QB3 spot on the 53-man roster and tried to claim 2021 third-round pick Kellen Mond
PHILADELPHIA – Be careful what you wish for. Most Eagles fans had so soured on Jalen Reagor that they wanted Howie Roseman to do anything to get the failed 2020 first-round pick out of town. Anything turned out to be more than expected as the Eagles’ GM flipped the embattled receiver to Minnesota, where he
It’s good to set lofty goals. To paraphrase the late Norman Vincent Peale, if you shoot for the moon, even if you miss, you’ll land among the stars. Before he ever caught an NFL pass, former Eagles tight end Zach Ertz would look you straight in the eye and tell you that his goal was
PHILADELPHIA – The revolving door at the NovaCare Complex was busy with safety Chauncey Gardner-Johnson making his practice debut and quarterback Ian Book preparing to arrive via waivers. Exiting were two disappointing 2020 draft picks, receiver Jalen Reagor, who was dealt to Minnesota, and linebacker Davion Taylor, who was released. Veteran safety Anthony Harris, meanwhile,
PHILADELPHIA – The Eagles have their third quarterback after being awarded Ian Book off waivers from the New Orleans Saints. The former Notre Dame star will fit in as Philadelphia’s QB3 behind starter Jalen Hurts and backup Gardner Minshew. The Eagles will have to make a roster to move by 4:00 PM to fit Book
PHILADELPHIA – Here is a position-by-position look at the Eagles’ initial 53: Quarterback (2) Jalen Hurts Gardner Minshew Running Back (3) Kenneth Gainwell Miles Sanders Boston Scott Wide Receiver (5) A.J. Brown Zach Pascal Jalen Reagor DeVonta Smith Quez Watkins Tight End (3) Grant Calcaterra Dallas Goedert Jack Stoll Offensive Line (10) Landon Dickerson Andre
Dating back to an offseason run at Marcus Williams in free agency, the Eagles have understood they needed an upgrade at safety from the 2021 season. It took until cutdown day to find it but Philadelphia believes they’ve gotten that upgrade in an unconventional fashion by acquiring New Orleans nickel back Chauncey Gardner-Johnson, along with
The Athletic is a great website for the chronic sports junkie. It has everything (except comprehensive boxing coverage, wink, wink). It has fantastic writers, like the Eagles’ beat reporter Zach Berman, and national NFL guy Sheil Kapadia, and a cadre of connected writers throughout the country. The Athletic has also done something that in some
PHILADELPHIA – Moves are beginning to trickle in for the Eagles in advance of Tuesday afternoon’s cutdown deadline. Keep it here for a running look at the Eagles’ roster moves: TUESDAY: 2:19 – The Eagles are waiving versatile DB who cross-trained at safety and nickel back this summer. He also was a key special-teamer lasts
MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. – Patrick Johnson was no sure thing to make the Eagles, especially after the team drafted the athletic Kyron Johnson in the sixth round back in April. The thought entering training camp was that the Eagles could only keep one backup to star pass rusher Haason Reddick at the SAM linebacker overhang
MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. – To the outsider, it was pedestrian, a practice session filled with checkdowns and a conservative approach. To the ultimate insider, it was a sight for sore eyes. Jalen Hurts practice on Wednesday against the Miami Dolphins will likely be the last time the third-year quarterback sees an unfriendly face until Sept.
MIAMI GARDENS – On the eve of the Eagles’ final preseason game against the Miami Dolphins, much of the roster looks set with the initial cutdown to 53 set for Tuesday, Aug. 30. The notable exception to that is safety where players like Josiah Scott, K’Von Wallace, Jaquiski Tartt, Andre Chachere, and Reed Blankenship could
MIAMI GARDENS – Kyzir White is coming off an excellent season with the Los Angeles Chargers in what was a contract year for the 26-year-old Lehigh County native yet the payoff wasn’t there. And that has left a very big chip on a good player’s shoulder, something that should only help the Eagles this season.
MIAMI GARDENS – Things didn’t go as planned for the Eagles Thursday in Miami. The Dolphins were forced to cancel the back end of consecutive joint practices due to a stomach virus that hit the team hard overnight. Miami head coach Mike McDaniel described the issue was with a few players and the goal was

MIAMI GARDENS – Ugo Amadi — we hardly knew you. Amadi’s tenure in Philadelphia lasted all of eight days when the Eagles sent him to Tennessee, along with a 2023 seventh-round pick in exchange for a sixth-round selection in 2023. The Eagles had acquired Amadi on Aug. 15 in a player-for-player deal that sent disappointing
MIAMI GARDENS – Jalen and Tua, Tua and Jalen. That’s been a thing since Jalen Hurts and Tua Tagovailoa called Tuscaloosa home. Despite presumptive acrimony of players competing together for one position, however, that’s simply never been the case for the two former Nick Saban signal-callers. The story of Tagovailoa and Hurts is a well-known

The Eagles have yet to beat an elite quarterback in the brief stint of the Nick Sirianni era and in only his second year here they are the talk of the NFL. Many believe that Sirianni’s Eagles, the Sigles, his team, with its deep, talented roster, can be Super Bowl contenders in the NFC. They
