PHILADELPHIA — The Philadelphia Eagles did not have a typical mandatory minicamp like in years past, using an offseason with less than the maximum three mandatory minicamp practices to lighten the workload on the defending Super Bowl champions. Every player was in attendance for the session, as the Eagles quickly exited the building for the summer soon after the 80-minute session was completed.
This offseason felt shorter due to the lack of OTA practices (Eagles only had six) and the one-practice mandatory minicamp, a small price to pay for players to rest up their bodies and prepare to defend a Super Bowl championship in five-and-a-half weeks.
There was a few intriguing developments from the practice, including who stood out in the session and who are the early favorites for some of the intriguing camp battles come July. Quite a few players have improved their stock heading into training camp, while others are certainly worth watching late in the summer.
Here were five takeaways from the Eagles’ one and only mandatory minicamp practice, including some standouts from the session.
