Tuesday is a players' day off for the Eagles, so now is a perfect time to get some clarity on roster battles as the team continues its 2016 Training Camp with an eye on a more physical portion of practice ahead and the preseason opener not too far away.
Head coach Doug Pederson encourages competition across the roster, and while it's fair to say that some positions are etched in as much stone as is possible in the NFL - Sam Bradford is the starting quarterback, Jason Peters is the starting left tackle, Fletcher Cox may earn some playing time at defensive tackle, for example - there are some battles to keep an eye on as the month of August separates the roster contenders.
