The Eagles head coach felt there were too many captains last season and scaled back from none to seven.
PHILADELPHIA - The Eagles downgraded from nine captains to seven this season. Only one player who wore the “C” on his jersey last season did not repeat: fourth-year receiver DeVonta Smith.
Quarterback Jalen Hurts, wide receiver A.J. Brown, right tackle Lane Johnson, left tackle Jordan Mailata, defensive end Brandon Graham, cornerback Darius Slay, and kicker Jake Elliott are the 2024 team leaders. The only first-timer in that group is Mailata.
