Jalen Mills arrived for the first day of training camp with green hair. So much for being an anonymous rookie. Jim Schwartz, the Eagles' veteran defensive coordinator, looked at Mills . . . like he had green hair.
"If you're going to be wearing that green hair, you better be out here making plays," Schwartz told Mills.
Mills never flinched. It didn't occur to him that there was an alternative. And when he plays against top wide receivers, it doesn't occur to him that maybe he shouldn't wag his finger after an incompletion.
Reticence is not in his repertoire.
