Former NFL offensive lineman says Eagles rookie Jordan Mailata is showing ‘unbelievable development’

Two weeks ago, Jordan Mailata played in the first football game of his entire LIFE when the Eagles hosted the Pittsburgh Steelers. The 2018 seventh-round pick seemed to handle himself pretty well, especially relative to realistic expectations.

Unfortunately, we didn’t get to see much of the Australian native in last week’s Eagles-Patriots preseason game since he only played four snaps. But Mailata was back in action on Thursday night in the Eagles-Browns game and boy does he have former NFL offensive lineman Brian Baldinger fired up, in a good way!
