The Eagles held the second of three minicamp practices this week. Wednesday’s session was open to the media. Here are some observations and notes:
- Jalen Mills has had a strong under-the-radar spring. “Under the radar” maybe because I hadn’t highlighted his performance – until now – or maybe because he’s gotten to a stage in his career where it’s expected. Mills wasn’t an elite cornerback last season. But he was mostly consistent and has solidified himself as a starter. I don’t want to overstate his effectiveness in noncontact practices, but he competes on every down and has kept Mike Wallace – his primary opponent – in check.
