Also, Mukuba filled the role as sixth defensive back.The Eagles held their third practice of training camp for the 2025-26 season on Saturday at the NovaCare Complex. Links to DayThe Eagles have managed to avoid any significant injuries in their first three workouts and the only change to the practice list was the return of guardSaturday’s session was the longest yet — 1 hour, 38 minutes — but the players have yet to work out in full gear. Tuesday’s practice is slated to be the first in pads.filled the role as the sixth defensive back and often lined up in the slot or at the second level. The rookie safety was in coverage on several completed passes, although it’s difficult to say with certainty whether he could have done much to disrupt quarterbackbeat the rookie in man coverage on an option route — a tough assignment for anyone. While playing safety with the second unit, Mukuba broke on a pass over the middle and bumped receiver. During a situational period vs. the third offense, Brown undercut Gray’s route, which may have resulted in the receiver not hanging onto quarterback’s pass. It’s still early in the safety competition, but Mukuba’s experience at the slot in college could at least have him on the field in dime.flashed in each of the first two practices, but I found myself writing down his No. 97 several times on this day. He impeded the path of running backon an early run. He got to Hurts for a would-be sack a few periods later. And he batted a Hurts pass at the line to the ground. Ojomo often has lined up opposite right guard. I don’t know if his performance says anything about Steen’s hold on the spot. Practices in pads will reveal more about the Eagles’ linemen.Jalyx Hunthasn’t gotten much inside penetration on his rushes, but he has consistently filled gaps and made stops vs. runs up the middle. He gobbled up Barkley on one such rush.on a couple of deep routes. On the first, Hurts put too much air under the ball, and when Brown came back for it, Ringo impeded his path. Ringo never looked back and likely committed pass interference. There weren’t referees at practice, but special teams coordinatorLate in the session, Ringo got up on Brown and played man-press coverage. He tried to get hands on him, but Brown swatted them away and got separation on a fade route. Hurts’ tear drop landed squarely in his receiver’s hands for maybe the best hookup of practice. The quarterback has had a strong start to camp, although he had a few more misses today — not all of them his fault. Smith got matched up 1 on 1 against cornerbackon a fade route. He got one hand on Hurts’ throw, but Mitchell had tight coverage prevented him from pulling the ball in. Goedert couldn’t hang onto to a toss with linebackerblanketing him. During seven-on-sevens, Hurts hit one of the “rabbit ears” that simulate pass rushers with their hands up. In a later red zone team drill, Hurts went to Goedert on a post route into the end zone, but his pass sailed high off the tight end’s outstretched hand. He threw out of bounds to a coveredand was errant on the receiver’s comeback route a few sets later. Dotson’s route didn’t look precise.. And he connected with Smith for back-to-back red zone touchdowns in which the receiver planted himself just over the goal line. As a runner, Hurts slipped to the ground on a zone read keep. He tried to turn the corner on a designed outside zone run later on, but linebackerThe Eagles might be labeling Campbell as a limited participant, but I haven’t seen much restriction in terms of his use. He got some first-unit reps for the first time and was the lone off-ball linebacker in dime. The coaches are throwing a lot at him. Campbell said after practice that he’s learning both inside spots. Outside linebackers coachhas also been in his ear, although Campbell hasn’t spent time in edge rusher meetings yet.run. Trotter hasn’t necessarily done anything to lose his spot with the starters, but it’s only a matter of time until the bigger, faster, and stronger top pick Campbell is starting next to Baun.has shown some juice on the ground. The undrafted rookie used a nifty jump cut to find space upfield on a rush. He might be the odd man out with Barkley, Shipley and to the ground after a reception. He’s back in after a couple of impressive grabs — one over the middle in traffic and the other when he outmuscled cornerbackon a jump ball from McCord to end practice. The offensive sideline erupted and swarmed the third-year receiver. Cooks, who spent his first two NFL seasons with the Jaguars, has good size at 6-foot-4, 215 pounds.
