Strong Safety

  1. Malcolm Jenkins
  2. Jalen Mills
  3. Chris Maragos

Malcolm Jenkins was one of the best safeties in the NFL last season and has become the heartbeat of the Eagles’ defense. His versatility and intelligence is unrivaled and will be the definite starter at strong safety in 2016. Behind him will be rookie Jalen Mills, who will also spend some time playing corner. Chris Maragos will also be in the mix, but will remain primarily a special teams player.
