Yahoo Sports activities Senior NFL Reporter Charles Robinson is out on the highway protecting coaching camps. Right this moment’s cease: the Philadelphia Eagles.
Concerning the QB
Digging into the state of affairs with Jalen Hurts in 2023, you get fed a number of stuff. Both he wasn’t completely wholesome, or lacked confidence past one learn, or wasn’t seeing the center of the sphere persistently, or had management points with Nick Sirianni. I’ll simply decide on this: Hurts wants one constant, long-term (multi-season) play-caller. Begin there.
Rookie to look at
There’s a number of buzz round fifth-round linebacker Jeremiah Trotter Jr. From the teaching employees to the entrance workplace, it’s clear he’s rushing up his alternatives to be a rookie contributor. The plan initially for him was to play on particular groups and see the place his arc went. It might take time, however he’s acquired a shot to be part of the linebacker rotation in 2024.
Retaining my eye on
It’s a giant season for Jalen Carter in 12 months 2. The Fletcher Cox retirement opens up a void in each snaps and management and there’s going to be some strain on Carter to fill each. I feel he might get moved round somewhat on the defensive position at instances, so his conditioning must be on level down the stretch. Backside line, this can be a probability for him to be the man.
Fantasy thought
I didn’t get any sense that there was going to be a lot load administration or moderation in relation to operating again Saquon Barkley. Barring offensive coordinator Kellen Moore throwing a curveball, I believe he’ll get each alternative to be every thing to the Eagles that Christian McCaffrey is to the San Francisco 49ers.
What I noticed that was fascinating
Olympic summers all the time have messaging overlap in camps, and I appreciated one thing Nick Sirianni imparted to his workforce privately after U.S. sprinter Noah Lyles received the 100-meter sprint by an inch: Each single tiny element and energy mattered in that race and was the distinction between gold and silver. When camp will get ragged, it’s an excellent message to recollect.
Wild card
I used to be leaning on one thing concerning the younger components of the protection right here, however frankly, crucial participant and storyline this season goes to be Jalen Hurts. And to me, that makes offensive coordinator Kellen Moore’s impression completely large. He has to form an outlined identification round Hurts in each single respect. Nothing is extra vital.
