Training camp is over for the Philadelphia Eagles, and now the 2026 regular season is close to being upon the fan base.
It was a long five weeks of work with all kinds of ups and downs, from Jonathan Greenard getting hurt right before camp to seeing some standout performances. Even with Jalen Hurts throwing multiple interceptions and the whole world freaking out, the Eagles worked through learning a new offensive system, and the defense dominated the practice field.
Several winners and losers from the Eagles' training camp are worth examining. Here are the 10 who either had great camps or struggled to make a mark on the team.
Winners and losers from Eagles' full five weeks of training camp
Winner: Jalyx Hunt, EDGE
With Greenard out of the picture with his injury, Hunt stepped up in a big way, and from Day 1 he dominated. Even during the joint practice with the New England Patriots, sources there told Eagles reporters that Hunt is a problem. This training reassured Eagles fans they have a star in the making at edge rusher, and his name is Jalyx Hunt.
Loser: Eli Stowers, TE
The hope is that Stowers will eventually be ready to be an NFL tight end, but training showed Eagles fans he is far behind in his development. He never really made any plays and stayed quiet throughout camp. Many believe he might end up being inactive a lot during the season, so it's not a great start for the second-round rookie.
Winner: Jeremiah Trotter Jr., LB
No one raised their stock higher than Trotter did during training camp. He reaffirmed what everyone believed: That he is ready to be a starter in 2026. While he will most likely be a rotational guy with Jihaad Campbell, Trotter is going to be a massive problem this season for offenses because this guy is legit.
Loser: Andy Dalton, QB
It started back at OTAs, but it carried into training camp, and Dalton just struggled. He never did much in practice and looked even worse in preseason. Dalton looks like a guy who'll last only a few months before the Eagles move on from him, because this just isn't working.
Winner: Willie Lampkin, OL
Lampkin went from being an undersized lineman who was most likely on the practice squad to a lock to make the 53-man roster. Throughout training camp, the 5-foot-11 lineman proved that he can block with the best of them and dominated the line of scrimmage. There might be a future where he starts because this guy can legitimately be a great offensive lineman in the NFL.
Loser: Makai Lemon, WR
Lemon has the potential, and everyone can see it, but missing about four weeks of camp isn't good for his development. His hamstring injury kept him out of the first two preseason games and prevented him from participating in training camp. Eagles fans shouldn't feel discouraged because this offense will involve Lemon early and often.
Winner: Darius Cooper, WR
A guy who stepped up big time in Lemon's absence: Cooper. He did it again by being the training camp darling for this offense, as he dominated the Eagles' secondary and made the most of his reps. Once again, he earned a spot on the roster, but this season, he could be playing a lot more than he did in 2025.
Loser: Jonathan Greenard, EDGE
Greenard was the only Eagles player to miss the entire training camp with a pectoral injury. That's not a great first impression on a guy the Eagles traded for and gave a $100 million, four-year contract extension to. He might not even start the season on the field, so it's not a good look for him so far.
Winner: Dontayvion Wicks, WR
Wicks locked himself into the WR2 role easily for the Eagles, and he looked good doing it. There's a lot of pressure on him since he is physically replacing A.J. Brown as the outside receiver opposite DeVonta Smith, but he answered the call in a big way. It looks like it'll be a career season coming for Wicks.
Loser: Hollywood Brown, WR
This Hollywood certainly did not shine like the star Eagles wanted him to. Through the first four weeks of camp, there were too many reports of Brown and Hurts just not being on the same page to the point that they had to work together after practice. While things got better between them in the final week of camp, Brown's role in this offense is kind of up in the air after being outperformed by a lot of guys.

Winner: Ty Robinson, DT
Robinson might have made the biggest leap of any Eagles player from 2025 to 2026. He had three sacks in two preseason games at tackle and dominated at training camp, earning first-team reps. Robinson looks like a man who will get far more reps than he did as a rookie last year.
