The Eagles just completed their third training camp practice in front of a packed house that included select servicemen and women for Military Appreciation Day.
Jalen Hurts, and the Philadelphia offense was lethal for most of the morning session, with A.J. Brown and Darius Slay utilizing the ‘Iron Sharpens Iron’ approach to competition.
With the Birds set for a Monday morning walkthrough, here are highlights and notes from Day 3.

D'Andre Swift matchup nightmare
Swift will be a nightmare for safeties and opposing linebackers.
Sirianni on D’Andre Swift: “he has a unique ability” as receiver out of the backfield. Said makes #Eagles harder to defend while running similar plays.

Designed QB runs here to stay
Hurts is among the best at what he does, and Philadelphia will continue to utilize designed quarterback runs.
Eagles have done a lot of designed QB runs with Jalen Hurts today. They’ve been effective. (Of course, not like the defense can touch him.)

Sua Opeta
Opeta is one of 17 offensive linemen vying for a roster spot.
Landon Dickerson is back in with the starters for team. https://t.co/MQEEe2otgT

Christian Elliss
Elliss will make things difficult for Nicholas Morrow, and would Howie Roseman then address the position or roll with Dean and others?

Moro Ojomo

Kyron Johnson
Johnson plays a loaded position and he’ll need a few breakout performances to maintain a roster spot.
Now Kyron Johnson breaks through for a sack on Ian Book. Some quality reps from the edge rushers this period.

Dennis Kelly cross training
All great players need a backup and Philadelphia is cross-training Dennis Kelly at both offensive tackle spots.

Kelee Ringo sighting
Ringo is a big, lengthy cornerback, and he’ll learn valuable technique from Darius Slay and James bradberry.
First time seeing Kelee Ringo up close in action. He’s def nice with it and brings every part of his 6-foot-2 frame to the line of scrimmage. Enforced his physicality with a pair of PBUs during 1v1s
— Josh Tolentino (@JCTSports) July 30, 2023
Joseph Ngata sighting
The former Clemson star is a big, physical receiver, and a player to watch during the preseason.

Rashaad Penny getting comfortable
Penny has slimmed down and is looking to breakout with Philadelphia.

Rashaad Penny the pass catcher
Unlike his time in Seattle, Penny has been involved with the Eagles passing game during his first team reps.
Rashaad Penny: “I’ve never seen this many route trees” for RBs. Said he loves watchingD’Andre Swift catch the ball. “That’s his game.” #Eagles

Jordan Davis is massive
Davis actually looks slimmer, but he’s just in better condition.
