Philadelphia Eagles’ updated 90-man roster by jersey number ahead of the preseason opener against the New York Jets.

Taking an updated look at the Philadelphia Eagles’ undrafted free agents with the best chance to make the 53-man roster after Week one of training camp

After the NFL draft concluded in April, the Philadelphia Eagles officially welcomed five new members to their roster.

The wealth of young talent set to make NFL debuts won’t be reduced to that group of players after Philadelphia announced the signings of 12 undrafted rookies free agents before their first minicamp.

OTAs and the first week of training camp have offered several roster opportunities to under the radar players on the bubble.

With Philadelphia looking to get the best talent on the field, here’s an updated look at the undrafted free agents with the best shot at making the 53-man roster.

Philadelphia Eagles’ updated 90-man roster by jersey number as training camp gets underway, and four roster moves have already been made

After months of projecting and speculation, The Eagles have reported to the NovaCare Complex and will hold their first official practice on Wednesday morning.

All eyes will be on Jalen Hurts as he looks to solidify himself as the quarterback of the present and future. Other players to watch include A.J. Brown and Dallas Goedert on offense.

For the defensive side of the ball, Jonathan Gannon is front and center as the defensive coordinator after adding Haason Reddick, Kyzir White, Nakobe Dean, Jordan Davis, and others to the roster.

There have been some new additions to the roster over the past two weeks, and we’re taking an early look at Philadelphia’s 90-man offseason roster by jersey number.

How many roster spots are up for grabs as Eagles enter training camp?

The Eagles are gearing up for the start of training camp, where players will gather at the NovaCare Complex in South Philadelphia on July 26.

Philadelphia will then work to trim that roster from 90 to 53 players by the end of the preseason, with two joint practice sessions looming for players on the bubble.

With the same regime in place and continuity across the board, there won’t be many guaranteed roster spots available.

A handful of players appear ready to snatch up available spots.

With the Eagles three days out from the start of camp, here’s a closer look at the roster locks and spots still available as Philadelphia approaches training camp in 2022.

Who are locks to make the Eagles’ 53-man roster?

Which players are locks to make the Philadelphia Eagles 53-man roster?

The Eagles have a lot of individual talent and one of the top overall rosters in the NFL, making this one of the easier evaluation periods as training camp approaches in just nine days.

Outside of the safety position, there aren’t many holes, with most of the intense roster battles involving backup spots on both sides of the ball.

Philadelphia’s 22 projected starters are set at every position except safety (Epps, Tartt), and of the 53 roster spots, we’ve predicted 41 guys are locks to make the roster.

The Philadelphia Eagles returned to the practice field for the third day of Organized Team Activities (OTAs), where the offense and defense continue to put work in ahead of training camp in late July.

With no mandatory minicamp scheduled, the Birds will meet for three days next weekend before breaking until the start of preseason actions.

Here’s a look at the best photos from Philadelphia’s OTAs, including a look at quarterback Jalen Hurts, first-round pick Jordan Davis, and all-world wide receiver, A.J. Brown.

The Eagles are in Week 4 of their nine-week offseason workout routine for all 32 teams with the training programs broken down into three phases, no mandatory minicamp for the vets and an already completed rookie camp held after the draft.

There have been some new additions to the roster since the 2022 NFL draft, and we’re taking an early look at Philadelphia’s 90-man offseason roster by jersey number:

Eagles’ cornerback depth chart gets big boost with addition of James Bradberry

Philadelphia Eagles’ cornerback depth chart gets big boost with addition of James Bradberry

The Eagles may have finally solidified the cornerback position after agreeing to a deal with veteran cornerback James Bradberry on a one-year contract.

Bradberry, 28, was a Pro Bowler and one of the NFL’s top cornerbacks, but the Giants released him earlier this month for cap purposes.

Bradberry’s contract is worth up to $10 million with incentives, according to Adam Schefter.

Pairing Bradberry, with Darius Slay and Avonte Maddox, now gives Philadelphia starting unit that’s not at a disadvantage in any matchup and it greatly increases the depth in the secondary.

After drafting no cornerbacks in the draft, Philadelphia added four cover guys through undrafted free agency. They also signed three offensive linemen.
