Carson Wentz sits out Eagles' first preseason game

It appears Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz will not play in the team’s first preseason game Thursday night against the Tennessee Titans, as the Birds' three backups -- Nate Sudfeld, Clayton Thorson, and Cody Kessler -- are all warming up, and Wentz is not. Add in that Wentz is on the field in street clothes just before kickoff, and I'll deduce that he is indeed not playing.

Despite their low ranking in 25-and-under players, the Eagles have their share of players who have never produced for a full season, but are positioned to do so in 2019. Here are eight.

Eagles training camp practice notes, Day 11: Clayton Thorson is basically Dan Marino

On the Philadelphia Eagles' 11th day of training camp, their last before their first preseason game, the Birds took it easy, wearing shells and shorts, and conducting a relatively short practice. As always, we have notes.

A look at the Eagles' 2020 free agents, and who could be in-season contract extension candidates

Howie Roseman and the Philadelphia Eagles' front office have done a good job keeping their best players under contract for the long-term, and the Birds don't have many key players set to become free agents in 2020.

Eagles fantasy football rankings, with buy/sell analysis

Fantasy football nerds are already deep into draft season, which is crazy to me, but also partly why I have a job, so thanks! Here we'll take a look at where the fantasy football experts have Eagles players rated, and determine if you should buy or sell each player based on what we know about the team and what we have seen so far in training camp.

Eagles training camp practice notes, Day 10: More work in the red zone

Philadelphia Eagles training camp practice No. 10 is now in the books, and it was a boring one today, as the team had a "10-10-10" day. Still, as always, we have notes.

Eagles player stock up / stock down media poll

We are now 10 days into Philadelphia Eagles training camp, so I figured I'd take some time today to poll the Eagles' media contingent on which players have looked good so far throughout camp, and which ones have not looked so good.

Eagles training camp practice notes, Day 9: Miles Sanders, RB1

In the Eagles' lone open training camp practice of 2019, a controversy that the city of Philadelphia may never exceed in magnitude again, the Birds drew over 40,000 fans, an impressive turnout. As always, we have notes, though they'll be a little shortened tonight, because, well, I want to get out of here and go to bed. ;)

A recap of the Eagles' injuries, five weeks before Week 1

The football gods spared the season of Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Kamu Grugier-Hill, as he avoided a dreaded ACL tear, and instead will "only" be out roughly a couple months with an MCL sprain. Now feels like an appropriate time to update the Eagles' injuries.
