Overview
- The Eagles completed a two-day, media-accessible minicamp this week and will not hold team practices again until training camp in late July.
- Riq Woolen stood out across OTAs and minicamp with tight coverage, a corner blitz that pressured Jalen Hurts, and an interception that reporters say signals he could improve the outside corner spot opposite Quinyon Mitchell.
- Head coach Nick Sirianni confirmed the team is rotating Tanner McKee and Andy Dalton at the QB2 spot, leaving the backup quarterback job as an open competition through the summer.
- Several rookies were limited or sidelined at minicamp — including Markel Bell, Eli Stowers, and first-round pick Makai Lemon — creating short-term uncertainty about their availability and early contributions.
- The Eagles added veteran edge A.J. Epenesa for depth, while Jalen Carter’s continued absence from OTAs and 11-on-11 work remains unexplained and will be a focus when the team reconvenes for fuller evaluations.
