Eagles Working Out LB Log Jam, Trade Joe Mays to Denver

The Philadelphia Eagles and Denver Broncos swapped players. Denver sent RB JJ Arrington to Philly for LB Joe Mays; like any of your favorite reality shows, there’s a "catch". If JJ doesn’t make the Eagles’ final roster, which he won’t without LeSean McCoy, Mike Bell or Charles Scott getting injured, he turns into a 2011 sixth-round pick from the Broncos.

Lots of Competition as Reid’s Eagles Head Into Camp

All eyes were on Brandom Graham today, as the Eagles first round pick made his first appearance at training camp after ending his holdout.  While the rookie defensive end may be the media darling at the moment, Graham is in the midst of a heated competition for a starting spot on the defensive line.

Philadelphia Eagles Training Camp Drama: Prodigal Son, Unwanted Rebel

USA Today (Bethlehem, PA)—It was an eerie scene at the opening of Eagles' training camp. The welcome signs of the upcoming season were all around, yet one thing seemed out of place.

Nate Allen Signs, Eagles Release Mistake Alex Hall

Hall was clearly not the player Reid thought he was. Only a few hours after second-round pick Nate Allen finally signed on (after missing two days of camp), the Eagles released DE/OLB Alex Hall -- a piece they picked up in the Chris Gocong/Sheldon Brown trade. So while it's great Allen is finally in camp and can get started learning the defense he'll be helping to run, the...
