Eagles Minicamp Practice Notes: Jalen Hurts caps off strong spring - BGN
POSITION BATTLE UPDATE — CORNERBACK: Kelee Ringo broke up a Tanner McKee throw to Danny Gray on a comeback. Then he had a leaping breakup on a McKee jump ball throw to Terrace Marshall. Not the best pass but still a good job by Ringo. Ringo was first up at right cornerback with the Eagles’ first-team defense in 7-on-7 and 11-on-11. He did still rotate with Adoree’ Jackson.

2. Kelee Ringo was first up at cornerback on Tuesday in seven-on-seven drills, but what stood out more than the depth chart component was the usage and the performance. Ringo played on the right side with Quinyon Mitchell on the left side. The Eagles are looking at the cornerbacks on both sides. (It’s worth wondering whether Mitchell will travel more with receivers this season.) Ringo, who is my pick to win the starting job, had two notable pass breakups in practice. This is the year for Ringo to combine the physical gifts with the understanding of the position, because the traits are hard to find.

Saquon Barkley recently made some news when he suggested on Chris Long’s “Green Light” podcast he could up and retire at any moment. On Tuesday, he made sure to note, “I don’t plan on retiring anytime soon.”
Eagles practice observations: Kelee Ringo stars; Jahan Dotson catches on; Jalyx Hunt brings the energy - Inquirer
Jahan solo. A.J. Brown took his first competitive snaps – at least at the practices I witnessed. The Eagles seem to be managing the soon-to-be 28-year-old’s workload, like they have been with other key skill players. I counted only a few grabs for Brown, which was abnormal considering how often quarterback Jalen Hurts likes to throw to his favorite target. Not having Brown and Smith for most of the spring was probably, in the bigger picture, a good thing for the next batch of receivers. Jahan Dotson benefited the most and was often Hurts’ first outlet. He caught every pass I logged in the three open workouts. He didn’t see the ball very much in his first season with the Eagles, for various reasons. But the former Washington Commanders first-round draft pick, who is playing in the last year of his rookie contract, has consistently flashed reliable hands. He could be pivotal if Hurts is forced to throw more this season.

How will the Eagles’ annual coordinator change affect Jalen Hurts this time? The 2022 Eagles reached the Super Bowl with Shane Steichen as offensive coordinator, but then Steichen got hired to coach the Colts, and Hurts and the Philly offense regressed badly in 2023 under Brian Johnson. The Eagles brought...
