Philadelphia Eagles to increase Stefen Wisniewski's playing time, Barner earns honor and more

PHILADELPHIA -- The Eagles haven't nixed their left guard rotation entirely, but they are leaning more toward Penn State grad Stefen Wisniewski at the position.

After benching Isaac Seumalo in Week 3, the Eagles began mixing Wisniewski and fellow veteran Chance Warmack in at left guard. The formula produced improved results up front, and a rejuvenated running game launched the Birds on a three-game winning streak that they'll take into a primetime matchup against the Panthers on Thursday night.

And coach Doug Pederson reiterated Wednesday that Wisniewski, who started the past two games, has separated himself from Warmack and earned a more expanded role.
