Following a chaotic offseason, there are quite a few questions facing the Philadelphia Eagles and head coach Chip Kelly. But no question may be bigger than the ultimate decision of which quarterback will be the team’s starter, Sam Bradford or Mark Sanchez? Both are recovering from their own injuries and Kelly seems to believe there will be a full fledged competition during training camp to see who will be the starting quarterback for the upcoming season. All that and more in this morning’s serving of Bacon, Eggs and Eagles!

Chip Kelly’s biggest summer decision for Eagles: Bradford or Sanchez? – Charles Robinson of Yahoo.com

"PHILADELPHIA – When the last Philadelphia Eagles minicamp practice of the offseason ended Thursday and a line of media members curled toward quarterback Sam Bradford, he looked as nimble as anytime on this rainy afternoon.Jogging through cameras and notepads without breaking stride, he trotted through double glass doors and left the final pressing June questions hanging in the air.What’s next for you this offseason? When you come back, are you competing for the starting job?"

Eagles coach Chip Kelly out $99,000 after losing lease dispute – John Breech of CBSSports.com

"If you’ve ever had problems with your landlord, Chip Kelly can definitely empathize with you.The Eagles coach was on the losing end of a $99,000 judgment this week after his landlord took him to court.The dispute revolved around whether or not Kelly gave proper notice when he moved out of his penthouse apartment in April 2014.Under Kelly’s lease agreement, the Eagles coach had to give at least 90-days notice before moving out of the $10,700-a-month apartment he began renting in April 2013, according to court documents obtained by The Legal Intelligencer."

Josh Huff out to show he can do more for Eagles – Jeff McLane of Philly.com

"Josh Huff caught the pass in stride 20 yards downfield on a crossing route. With the ball in his hands, he burst ahead looking for a defender to plow over. But each defensive back peeled off and Huff jogged back to the sideline unable to unleash his fury.In minicamp, practices are no more than touch football and physical wide receivers such as Huff don’t get opportunities to display their wares. But the Eagles don’t have to worry about Huff with the ball in his hands. It’s making sure it gets there and stays."

Evan Mathis: I’m ready for my best year yet – Josh Alper of ProFootballTalk.com

"Now that Evan Mathis is on the open market after his release by the Eagles, teams have to weigh whether or not they want to make a bid for the 33-year-old as a free agent.One thing they’ll do before making that call is look at film of Mathis’s 2014 play for Philly, something that Doug Farrar of SI.com did this week with the help of Mathis himself. In an interesting piece that’s worth a read in full, Mathis breaks down five plays that appeared to be poor ones for Mathis last season to provide insight into what he was supposed to do on the play and what went right or wrong in the execution."

Eagles’ Celek likes what he’s seeing at minicamp – Bob Grotz of DelcoTimes.com

"PHILADELPHIA >> This Eagles minicamp was very different than the eight before it for veteran tight end Brent Celek.This camp ended Thursday with Celek, 30, owning the title of longest tenured active position player. Zach Ertz playfully calls the senior statesman “old man.”That Celek has withstood the incredible turnover in the Chip Kelly era is a testament to durability, adaptability and enthusiasm.Celek hopes this group does what no Eagles teams has done since 2008 … win a playoff game."

Kelly is certainly reaching his players, as you can tell by this quote from wide receiver Jordan Matthews. Kelly would be proud.
