The 2024 NFL Top 100 List continues to be unveiled, and Lane Johnson came in at No. 41 — for the second year in a row. The Eagles’ veteran right tackle has developed into one of the best in the entire league, and he deserves all the acknowledgement for his role in what can be a dynamic offense.

Johnson is now the most experienced guy in the offensive line room, now that Jason Kelce retired, but the group is in great hands. Year-after-year we’re reminded just how critical it is to have the RT on the field.

He is the...

Eagles training camp is here. It means a new beginning. There are great expectations for this year’s team. Prognosticators have them ranked top five here, and top 10 there, which serves as great fodder for sportstalk radio hosts and podcast spinning heads, though does little to shed what happened late last season. That stink tends to linger and can only be erased on the field during live play, not in controlled settings like training camp.

This is a team with something to collectively prove in 2024, because the last time anyone saw the Eagles they were a downtrodden team that...

Eagles practice observations: Jalen Hurts a plus-one factor in run game; Cam Jurgens in space; conditioning at the forefront - Inquirer
When Hurts takes off on a scramble and motors into the secondary it can draw “oohs” and “ahhs” from fans at camp, but his red jersey affords him the comfort of running without fear. But there was a designed run that warranted excitement because it showcased a pulling Cam Jurgens. The Eagles have seen that athleticism from the center since his rookie camp when...

The Eagles were back on the field Thursday for Day 2 of training camp, and defensive coordinator Vic Fangio spoke to reporters before the start of practice. He talked about how they see Bryce Huff, the cornerback and linebacker position battles, as well as his take on analytics.

Here’s what the DC had to say:

On DT conditioning

A whole lot has been made the past two years about Jordan Davis’ conditioning, and while Fangio said he doesn’t have a reference point since he wasn’t in Philly last year, he thought Davis and Jalen Carter both looked good...

Former NFL running back LeSean McCoy was one of the best players at his position in the league for a long time.

Most notably, he spent six seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles (2009-2014) where he became one of the league’s best overall players.

The six-time Pro-Bowler ended up moving on to play for the Buffalo Bills, Kansas City Chiefs, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and he won two Super Bowls with the latter two squads.

However, in a recent appearance on Up & Adams, McCoy stated that he would trade his two Super Bowl rings if it meant that he could...

Observations from the NovaCare Complex.

Today marked the second Philadelphia Eagles training camp practice ahead of the 2024 season. The session lasted for a little under 90 minutes. Here’s what I observed at the NovaCare Complex.

EAGLES PRACTICE NOTES

• JALEN HURTS UPDATE: A lot more of the same we saw from Hurts on Day 1, which is important. Gotta stack those good days. Hurts has been very efficient; the ball has rarely hit the ground. He’s been very decisive as both a passer and a runner. Hurts’ average time to throw sped up from 2021 to 2022 but...

The Philadelphia Eagles clearly missed Jonathan Gannon last season.

Nick Sirianni even wound up replacing Sean Desai with Matt Patricia at one point to try and fix their inexplicably inconsistent defense.

That’s why they wanted to bring in one of the best in business to solve that issue, getting Vic Fangio.

Fangio had outstayed his welcome in South Beach and reportedly had a complicated relationship with some Miami Dolphins players, but his reputation still preceded him as one of the best defensive minds in the game.

Moreover, it seems like Fangio is also a bit of a Billy Beane himself....

Thankfully, the rookie LB will be just fine after being carted off the field at the end of practice.

The Eagles were back on the field Thursday for their second training camp practice, and on the final play of their developmental period, rookie linebacker Jeremiah Trotter Jr. went down and was seen grabbing the back of his leg. Trainers were seen rubbing his leg before he was ultimately carted off the field. Fortunately, reports following the scare confirmed that he was only dealing with cramps, and not something more serious.

Crisis averted is great news for a lot of reasons,...

Ahead of the Eagles’ second training camp practice, the team announced that they had signed WR Griffin Hebert and waived OT Gottlieb Ayedze from the Non-Football Injury list.

Hebert is a tight end/wide receiver hybrid, and first signed with the Eagles back in December 2023 when he joined the practice squad. He signed a futures contract with the team in January, but was released at the end of April following the draft. The WR was invited back to Philly for a tryout during minicamp, but left without a new offer.

He played five years for Louisiana Tech, and was used...

When it comes to training camp in the NFL, teams all around the league make many tweaks to the roster.

Some new players are added so that the team can see what they have, and other players can be waived or put on an injury list.

The Philadelphia Eagles made a couple of moves recently as their training camp is now underway.

They announced on social media that they have signed wide receiver Griffin Hebert and waived offensive tackle Gottlieb Ayedze from the Non-Football Injury List.

We've signed WR Griffin Hebert and waived T Gottlieb Ayedze from Non-Football Injury...

The San Francisco 49ers have dominated the NFC in four of the last five years as they have won 10+ games and made the NFC Championship in each of those years with multiple Super Bowl appearances coming as well.

The Detroit Lions are coming off of arguably their best season in franchise history after winning 12 games for the second time ever and the NFC North for the first time before getting to within a fourth quarter of their first-ever Super Bowl appearance.

Another team on the rise is the Green Bay Packers, who made the playoffs in the first...

The Philadelphia Eagles are in a prime position to dominate their division right now.

They have — by far — the best roster in the NFC East, and while there are some major doubts about Nick Sirianni after last season, they should still be the team to beat there in 2024.

At least, that’s how Craig Carton feels.

In the latest edition of The Carton Show, the controversial pundit stated that the Eagles were the absolute best team in the NFC East, and it shouldn’t even be up for debate.

"The Eagles are the best team, and I don't...
