The Philadelphia Eagles' 2025 training camp got underway with a new-look depth chart that has fans and analysts alike abuzz. A closer examination of the team's roster reveals some surprising position battles that could shape the outcome of the season.
Linebacker Competition Heats Up
Last season, the Eagles relied heavily on their defense to stay afloat in contention. With the likes of Jalen Hurts and DeVonta Smith taking on more prominent roles in the offense, the team's defensive unit will be counted upon to make similar waves in 2026.
At linebacker, the Eagles' depth chart has a few key positions up for grabs. One player to keep an eye on is Norman Hankerson, an outside linebacker whose tackling and ball-hawking skills have drawn praise from coaches and scouts.
Quarterback Controversy?
While Jalen Hurts remains the likely starting quarterback, there's been talk of a potential competition for the backup role. Mason Rudolph, a veteran signal-caller, is said to be pushing for the spot, bringing a measure of stability and experience to the position.
What It Means for the Eagles
A competitive training camp is just what the Eagles need to stay motivated and focused on the season ahead. If the team emerges with a clear pecking order at the key positions, they'll be better equipped to adapt to the ever-changing landscape of the NFL.
