Philadelphia Eagles roster notes: Winners, losers from preseason finale
Add these guys to the Philadelphia Eagles’ stud category
Kenneth Gainwell, running back
Kenneth Gainwell further solidified himself as the third running back on this roster. Thank his performance all preseason for that nugget. Versus the Jets, he carried the ball five times for 32 yards and scored a touchdown
Elijah Holyfield, running back
He may not make the roster, but guys are asked to make plays when given an opportunity. Elijah Holyfield did that whenever he touched the rock during this preseason. Try 16 carries for 60 yards and three receptions for 22 yards on for size.
Honorable mention: JJ Arcega-Whiteside, wide receiver/ T.Y McGill, defensive lineman
We’re tough on him when he does something wrong. It’s only right that we praise him when he does something right.
JJ Arcega-Whiteside looked good on a catch that helped bail Flacco out of some trouble, and he hauled in a beaut to finish a touchdown drive by Philly at the end of the first half. T.Y McGill made his presence felt with two good-looking sacks.
