97.5 The Fanatic and ESPN Eagles beat reporter and host of The Fanatic’s “Embedded” podcast-Tim McManus-joined Mike Missanelli in studio Wednesday to talk about the highlights of Eagles Training Camp on July 31, 2019.
Today’s highlights include:
- A lighter day of practice today-especially for the starters.
- Veteran Jason Kelce had the day off.
- Team did not wear “full pads” today.
- Carson Wentz and Nate Sudfeld worked out with Dallas Goedert, Zach Ertz.
- Alshon Jeffery looked sharp.
- Darren Sproles looked fast and scored a touchdown
- Mike asked Tim what he thought could hold the team back. Tim says, that while they look great now, there is question if older roster players like DeSean Jackson and Darren Sproles, can make it through the season without injury.
- ..and a “what if”. What if Carson gets hurt, does Nate Sudfeld have what it takes. Tim thinks Nate would be good in the short term, but he has not had enough reps to be strong late in the season and into the playoffs.
