Eagles camp is buzzing this week, and the word on the street is that members of the team are absolutely raving about Jalen Hurts’ effort to level up his game. An NFL insider reported it, and honestly, if the QB is putting in the work that has folks talking like that, you know it’s a good sign for what’s coming. This isn’t just talk, either; it’s the kind of dedication you need when the season is right around the corner.
Road Trip to Foxborough: Joint Practices on Deck
The Birds’ 2026 training camp is back in full swing today, Monday. After today’s work, they’ve got a walkthrough and travel day on Tuesday, and then it’s go-time in Massachusetts. They’re heading up there for two joint training camp practices against the New England Patriots, set for Wednesday and Thursday. This is where things get real, right? While their home camp is basically closed off to the public, these joint sessions are a chance for the squad to really test themselves against another team before preseason action heats up. Today’s schedule for the Eagles includes a Sean Mannion press conference at 12:00 PM Eastern, practice kicking off at 12:20 PM Eastern, and then some select players hitting the media after practice wraps.
Preseason Whispers and Emerging Talent
Beyond Hurts’ incredible effort, there’s been some chatter from their preseason game against the Ravens. We’re seeing some early insights, like Jihaad Campbell, a starter, who wasn’t rested in that game. That tells you a lot about where he stands with the coaching staff. The Eagles also made a move, signing a new cornerback and cutting Hollin Pierce, so they’re clearly still tweaking that roster. And let’s not forget the intrigue around Uar Bernard and Joshua Weru, who made their NFL debuts. You always want to see young guys step up, and it sounds like these two gave folks something to talk about. The preseason observations from that Ravens game covered “the good, the bad, and the ugly,” with position battle updates and injury news, which is standard early in the season.
So, what’s next for the Eagles? Those two joint practices with the Patriots are huge. This isn’t just another practice; it’s a chance to see how that “raving about Jalen Hurts’ effort” translates against a real opponent. It’s a prime opportunity for those position battles to really shake out and for guys like Bernard and Weru to show even more. You know everyone will be watching those sessions to see who rises to the occasion.
