There are a lot of new faces for the Eagles this season, and with most of the starters sitting on the sideline during the preseason, their Week 1 matchup against the Patriots will be the first time we get to see this roster in action.
Aside from some of the rookies I’m really eager to see in regular season action — like Nolan Smith and Sydney Brown — I’m excited to see D’Andre Swift on offense and Josh Sweat on defense.
Swift seems obvious. It’s intriguing that the running back was getting reps with the receivers this week, and his short preseason performance was enough to peak my interest.
