Eagles training camp starts this week. Here's a reset of everything you might have missed this offseason.
If you checked out right after the Eagles lost to the 49ers in the playoffs this past January, you've missed a lot.

It’s officially the first week of school at the Jefferson Health Training Complex as the Eagles begin training camp ahead of the 2026 NFL season.
The team reports Tuesday and has its first on-field workout Wednesday, which means now might be a good time to get caught up on what was a significant offseason for the Eagles.
Heck, even the first sentence up there contains a change from 2025. It’ll take this writer some time to get out of the habit of referring to the team’s training facility as NovaCare, which it had been known as since it opened in 2001.
That’s what training camp is for, right?
Anyway, let’s recap all that’s happened since the Eagles lost their wild-card round playoff game to the San Francisco 49ers in January.
Coaching changes
Offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo’s firing started the offseason. The Eagles took a big step back offensively last season and the first-year coordinator essentially fell on the sword. There were issues beyond scheme and play-calling. The offensive line wasn’t as healthy, Jalen Hurts was inconsistent at times, and Saquon Barkley wasn’t as effective behind a banged up line.
But Patullo’s replacement, 34-year-old Sean Mannion, is slated to bring changes to the offense, especially when it comes to run-blocking schemes and Hurts taking snaps from under center and utilizing play-action passes.
Mannion, who was Green Bay’s quarterbacks coach last season, isn’t the only notable new face on offense. Longtime offensive line coach Jeff Stoutland is no longer with the team, and new position coach Chris Kuper is in charge of teaching and deploying those new blocking strategies.

Other new coaches on offense include Josh Grizzard (pass game coordinator), Ryan Mahaffey (run game coordinator/tight ends), Jerrod Johnson (senior offensive assistant). Parks Frazier, last season’s pass game coordinator, is now the quarterbacks coach.
On defense, Vic Fangio lost defensive backs coach Christian Parker, who is the new coordinator in Dallas. The Eagles promoted Joe Kasper to take over Parker’s defensive pass game coordinator duties and hired Roy Anderson (cornerbacks) and Mike Pellegrino (secondary).
A.J. Brown and other notable departures
A.J. Brown’s frustrations in Philly were well documented over the last few seasons. The saga finally came to a climax on June 1, though the writing was on the wall long before then. Brown was traded to New England for draft capital.
DeVonta Smith is now the receiver at the top of the depth chart.
Also gone from the receiving corps is Jahan Dotson, whose contract with the team expired. Other departures from offense include AJ Dillon and Kylen Granson, but the Eagles are returning most of their key offensive players, including their entire starting offensive line.
Defensively, the Eagles said goodbye to three starters in free agency in Jaelan Phillips, Nakobe Dean (Raiders), and Reed Blankenship (Texans). They have an obvious replacement for Dean in second-year linebacker Jihaad Campbell and Phillips was replaced by Jonathan Greenard (more on that soon), but the safety position is an interesting one entering camp.
Fangio revealed in the spring that Cooper DeJean, an All-Pro nickel, will play safety next to Drew Mukuba when the Eagles are in base. The current favorite for the job when the Eagles are in their nickel and dime packages is Marcus Epps.
Adoree’ Jackson, who played 63% of the defensive snaps last season, is no longer with the team after his contract expired. The same can be said for Brandon Graham, who came out of retirement to rejoin the team in October.
Additions, non-draft edition
The Eagles’ biggest splash of the offseason came during a draft weekend trade for Greenard. The Eagles acquired the 29-year-old edge rusher and a seventh-round pick in exchange for two third-round picks. Greenard was limited by injury and had three sacks in 12 games last season, but had 12 sacks in each of the previous two seasons.
Greenard subsequently signed a four-year, $98 million deal with the Eagles. Another addition to that position is Arnold Ebiketie, who signed a one-year deal.
It was a relatively quiet free agency period for the Eagles, but they did land former Seahawks cornerback Riq Woolen on a one-year deal worth at least $12 million. Woolen, 27, thrived in man coverage last season, and the Eagles plan to have him on the field at all times, hence DeJean playing safety in the base defense. They also signed veteran corner Jonathan Jones.
Replacing Brown won’t be easy, but the Eagles gave themselves some options before they reached draft weekend in Hollywood Brown (free agency) and Dontavion Wicks (trade).
Other newcomers on offense include blocking tight end Johnny Mundt and backup quarterback Andy Dalton.
Draft picks
The Eagles spent the past few seasons focusing on defensive players in the draft. That changed this year. Their young and inexpensive defense will soon be much more costly, and it was time to start refilling the cupboard on offense with younger players.
Here’s a list of the team’s draft picks:
Round 1: Makai Lemon, WR, USC
Round 2: Eli Stowers, TE, Vanderbilt
Round 3: Markel Bell, T, Miami
Round 5: Cole Payton, QB, North Dakota State
Round 6: Micah Morris, G, Georgia
Round 7: Cole Wisniewski, S, Texas Tech
Round 7: Uar Bernard, DT, International Pathway Program
Round 7: Keyshawn James-Newby, EDGE, New Mexico
New deals
Jordan Davis’ breakout 2025 season was rewarded with a three-year, $78 million contract extension.
Is Jalen Carter next? That will be a topic to track as camp gets underway.
Carter is entering his fourth season, and while he was hampered by shoulder injuries last season, he has been one of the better interior linemen in the NFL over the last two seasons. The Eagles have picked up his fifth-year option. Will they do more before the season starts?
The Eagles also gave new deals to a few of their own free agents, re-signing Dallas Goedert, Grant Calcaterra, Fred Johnson, Epps, and punter Braden Mann.
Will the Eagles soon play in a new stadium?
No, this doesn’t necessarily fit into a running list of changes to the Eagles, but Jeffrey Lurie did kickstart the process when asked about it at the annual league meeting in March.
The lease at Lincoln Financial Field expires in 2032. Lurie said that the team is going through “exploratory research” on the idea of building a new stadium or renovating their current home.
“We’re so focused on fan amenities,” Lurie said. “To me, that’s the No. 1 thing. Just as a boy growing up, you want to have as best a fan experience. The rest is architecture, design, and where it ends up.”
Where it ends up? As in leaving South Philly?
“Whatever’s best for the fans,” Lurie said. “I mean, we don’t really go on a geographical basis. It’s whatever’s best for the fans.”
The governor had a response to that a few weeks later.
“We’re not going to lose the Birds. They’re going to stay in Philly, and we’re going to make sure of that,” Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro said on the unCovering the Birds podcast.
