Flyers

Oskar Lindblom, now cancer-free, could return to game action in September — if Flyers are still playing

by Matt Mullin

The Flyers returned to action last weekend and picked up right where they left off when the NHL season was halted back in March, with a win. Carter Hart looked brilliant in the 4-1 victory over the Bruins — and will be getting the day off on Thursday when they play the Capitals — and the team got scoring from all over the place, with depth guys stepping up on what was a quiet day for the Flyers' top line.

What they're saying: Eagles 'likely' to miss playoffs, where their offense ranks, quarantining a QB

by Matt Mullin

Eagles' RB coach Duce Staley has big plans for Miles Sanders in 2020

by Matt Mullin

Duce Staley knows what it's like to be a feature back in the NFL. He also knows what it's like to be part of a backfield-by-committee. During his decade as a running back in the NFL, Staley has been both, and knows the rigors, both physically and mentally, of both sides of that coin. It's part of what's made him successful as the Eagles' running backs coach, and it's why he's among the most qualified people to discuss the role of second-year running back Miles Sanders moving forward.

What They're Saying: With Yannick Ngakoue holding out, could Eagles try for last-minute trade?

by Matt Mullin

As baseball struggles to get its act together it seems strange to talk about any sports that aren't taking place in a bubble, as they seem destined for big issues trying to return during a pandemic, but the NFL is proceeding toward its season nonetheless. The Eagles returned to NovaCare this week for the start of training camp, but with the new protocols in place they've yet to hit the field for their first full-team workout.

by Matt Mullin
