“Yesterday was the first time I heard Duce (Staley) really quiet in practice. That’s a rarity. That means we won”. Those were the words of one Malcolm Jenkins following the Philadelphia Eagles’ first full-tackling practice which went down about a week ago.
Jenkins is one of Philly’s leaders on defense. No scratch that. Jenkins is a leader, period. ’27’ appears to be pretty pumped up with what he’s been seeing from his teammates on defense. Who can blame him? Philly’s offensive line and their skill players have been hyped all season. Seeing the defense hold its’ own against, potentially, one of the NFL‘s best offensive units should fire up any Eagles fan and its’ players.
