🦅 What do you expect of Eagles' Nakobe Dean this season? NBCSPhilly flyeaglesfly
“You want to play. I wanted to play,” Dean said this spring. “Did I feel like I was ready? Yeah. But at the same time, we was rolling as a team.
“The main thing is winning games. Over everything is to win games, win championships. But sitting back and playing my role and doing whatever I could do to make this team better was my main focus.” But this year, Edwards and White walked as free agents and the only notable addition at the position came when the Eagles signed Nicholas Morrow to a one-year deal. So it’s pretty apparent the Eagles are expecting a lot from Dean in Year 2.“It just shows that they’re ready for me to step up,” Dean said. “I feel like I’m ready to step up. I’ve been ready. But as we do it now, it’s time for me to put out whatever I can do for this team to win ultimately.
Dean is an undersized linebacker even by modern-day standards. Perhaps that’s one of the reasons he lasted until the third round. But the Eagles watched him lead the Georgia Bulldogs to a National Championship a couple years ago and hope he’ll be that kind of presence in the middle of Sean Desai’s defense in 2023.
“He has a chip on his shoulder,” Jordan Davis said. “He always talks about it. And that’s what drives him. And just seeing him get his opportunity and for us to have an opportunity to play together, to be on the field at the same time, that’s amazing.”
