Projecting the Philadelphia Eagles’ final 53-man roster for 2016
By Tim Fernando
Cornerback
Nolan Carroll, Leodis McKelvin, Eric Rowe, Jalen Mills, Ron Brooks, Denzel Rice, JaCorey Shephard
Most are leaning towards Nolan Carroll and Leodis McKelvin starting at this point but who knows. Jalen Mills is certainly a smoky after his OTA and minicamp performance, Eric Rowe finished out last season as a starter. Ron Brooks is experienced in Jim Schwartz’ defense, Denzel Rice was used prominently last year in the slot. JaCorey Shephard was starting up until a training camp injury a year ago so his name could feature depending on performance.
