5 position battles to watch during Eagles joint practice sessions with the Browns

Five position battles to watch during the Philadelphia Eagles’ joint practice sessions with the Cleveland Browns

After 12 days of intense group practice, the Eagles will face opposition from the AFC over the next two weeks with joint practices against the Browns and Dolphins.

Philadelphia arrived in Berea, Ohio, on Wednesday night, and they’ll kick off day one of the joint sessions during the peak hours for heat, as Cleveland prefers to practice later in the afternoon.

Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni is big on using joint practice sessions to gauge his team’s competitive spirit and ability to be precise with schemes, formations, and overall game management. As far as Sirianni goes, the next two weeks of practice are Philadelphia’s preseason games, and the roster separation will begin on Thursday afternoon.

With the roster needing to be trimmed down to 80 by Tuesday, here are five position battles to watch.

Eagles have two undrafted free agents rising up the depth chart

Looking at the two undrafted free agents rising up the Philadelphia Eagles depth chart

Injuries are a typical result of intense training camp sessions, and that’s a prime opportunity for under-the-radar players to move up the depth chart.

As the Eagles prepare to travel to Cleveland for joint practices with the Browns, 12 players will likely have an injury designation after Marcus Epps, and James Bradberry exited practice early.

With Epps and Bradberry out, undrafted rookies Josh Jobe and Reed Blankenship received first teams reps during Tuesday’s final practice before the joint sessions with Cleveland starting Thursday.

It’s only practice, and this is still the preseason, but Jobe and Blankenship are names to watch and players that could cause roster chaos as Philadelphia trims down to 53 players before the season opener.

Here’s a look at what both players offer.

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?

How many roster spots are up for grabs as the Philadelphia 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.
