As expected, many of the Philadelphia Eagles’ most interesting topics of discussion during training camp have revolved around the team’s cornerback position.
It figures to be one of the most intriguing position battles of the Summer. The Philadelphia Eagles have more than their fair share of characters at cornerback. There won’t be any shortages of talking points as we move through training camp.
Friday wrapped their second day of practice, and it just feels like there are thirty or so. Let’s do a quick roll call to get everybody caught up.
The Eagles enter training camp with Jalen Mills, Josh Hawkins, Sidney Jones, Rasul Douglas, Ronald Darby, Jeremiah McKinnon, Avonte Maddox, Jay Liggins, and Cre’Von LeBlanc listed as their nine cornerbacks and Godwin Igwebuike listed as, simply, a defensive back.
Mills has been added to the Eagles PUP (physically unable to perform) list, and is all of that isn’t enough, on Friday, they also added Alex Brown off waivers to complete their 90-man roster.
Each one of these corners has a unique story. You’ll hear about all of them from now until September. Here are five of the highlights as Philly wrapped their second day of practice on Friday.
