With all of the moves Kelly has made this offseason, the Brandon Boykin situation has flown largely under the radar. The saga surrounding the Eagles' slot cornerback dates back to 2014, when fans were calling for him to start over the ineffective Bradley Fletcher. Boykin has publicly made known his desire to start on several occasions and the coaches have also gone on record to state they intend to let him compete for a starting job. But, for better or for worse, that claim has been largely baseless as Nolan Carroll has held a monopoly on the open corner spot so far.
