Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts had a very sharp day at training camp on Thursday.
PHILADELPHIA - The Eagles were back at it on Thursday for the second practice of training camp, again in overcast, humid conditions at the NovaCare Complex.
The session itself was a “green practice” lasting 78 minutes plus the developmental period and again featured a crisp offense led by Jalen Hurts, who has looked sharp and explosive in the first two days of summer work after a somewhat poor spring. Some highlights were a beautiful “Bang 8” route over the middle from A.J. Brown where Hurts hit the star receiver in stride and a trademarked toe-tap from DeVonta Smith.The defense has struggled to make plays over the first two days, something that was a staple for the group in the spring.
Starting left guard Landon Dickerson returned to practice in a limited fashion, stretching and doing some individual work before sitting out team drills. Mekhi Becton again handled first-team work in Dickerson’s absence. -The Eagles spent some significant time working on kickoff coverage with the new XFL-inspired rules set to be implemented. Michael Clay had his main coverage options working on the timing of leaving when the ball was caught. The sessions also involved the players who are expected to be the main coverage options like Kelee Ringo, Tristin McCollum, Josh Jobe, Mekhi Garner, and Ben VanSumeren.
