The Eagles held their twelfth practice of training camp on Saturday. Here’s what I saw:
-- The team was back in shells and shorts for a 10-10-10 practice. (Here’s an explainer on 10-10-10s.) It was a light session without much competition. After three days of full pads and hitting the players probably needed a break. They’ll be back in pads for the next two days before having Tuesday off. The first preseason game is Thursday against the Bucs. The mellow practice also meant no injuries, but the Eagles were without a number of significant players. Safety Malcolm Jenkins (hamstring), tackle Jason Peters (quadriceps), receiver Jordan Matthews (knee), running back Wendell Smallwood (quadriceps), defensive end Marcus Smith (concussion) and safety Rodney McLeod (funeral) were absent.
