Eagles Prepare Roster Changes Amid 2025 NFC East Title Defense

The Philadelphia Eagles, fresh off their Super Bowl LIX victory, relied heavily on a dominant rushing attack led by Saquon Barkley and a top-tier offensive line in 2024, resulting in the league's lowest passing attempts. However, projections for 2025 indicate a shift toward a more balanced offense with an increased passing volume due to a tougher schedule and a new offensive coordinator, Kevin Patullo. Training camp reports highlight a competitive battle for roster spots, particularly among quarterbacks and linebackers, with players like McCord and VanSumeren showing potential to make the team. On defense, the Eagles are focusing on developing young edge rushers such as Nolan Smith and Jalyx Hunt, though injuries and limited preseason action leave questions about their impact. The Eagles are favored to win the NFC East in 2025, despite a division known for its unpredictability and new contenders like the Giants bolstering their quarterback lineup. Meanwhile, some fans view former Eagles draft pick Jalen Reagor, now with the Chargers, as a cautionary tale and a symbol of past draft mistakes compared to current star receivers.
