Which Philadelphia Eagles players need to stay healthy or perform up to their standards for the team to have a successful season?

The success of an NFL team can come down to the performance and/or availability of a select few players. Last season, the Philadelphia Eagles had to grind their way to a 9-7 record and playoff victory. The beginning of the season was a struggle at points, largely due to injuries to key players and players not performing to their ability.

The Eagles look to have plenty of talent on the roster for the upcoming season. Eagles tight end Zach Ertz agrees, recently saying to NBC Sports Philadelphia the 2019 team is the most talented squad he’s been a part of.

"There’s a lot of expectations internally with us. Obviously, it’s early. It’s June, but you look around the locker room, in terms of talent, I’ve never been on a team like this."

That’s high praise coming from someone who was a part of the team that won Super Bowl LII. How successful the Eagles will be this season could rely on how these following players produce on the field.
