Let's get to the Philadelphia Eagles news and links …
This undersized 'beast' is pushing to make the Eagles' roster – NJ.com
The Eagles' smallest offensive lineman is making a big impression during training camp. And he's pushing for a spot on the 53-man roster, too. Willie Lampkin, the 5-foot-11 interior offensive lineman, has been one of the standouts through seven camp practices. The second-year pro has been turning heads (and moving bodies) at the Jefferson Health Training Complex. And the work that the 290-pounder has put in has been impossible to miss. "Willie's been killing it," rookie quarterback Cole Payton said. "Every day we have a team meeting after practice, and there's always 'good effort' clips. Willie's always on the 'good effort' clips. He's playing his ***** off, and I'm super happy for him." "Willie's a beast," interior offensive lineman Drew Kendall added. "He's had a great camp."

Lampkin notably took reps at second-team right guard in addition to third-team center. The Eagles seem to be taking a long look at him, as they should be. I think Lampkin is going to crush the preseason and win a roster spot, small stature be ***** ed.
Eagles 2026 training camp practice notes, Day 8: Jalyx Hunt is a beast – PhillyVoice
The catch of the day was made by… oh hey… Darius Cooper again. Cooper was running toward the sideline, and when he ran out of real estate, he planted both feet on the ground and made a catch while falling to the ground. Great catch. He is clearly going to make the team, and I'm beginning to wonder if he might be the WR3.
Eagles practice observations: Lane Johnson's heir apparent; Jihaad Campbell pops; Moro Ojomo's pressures – Inquirer
Jihaad Campbell popped off the screen in the early portion of the scrimmage. The linebacker completely knocked Jurgens on his rear on an early run play. Later, Campbell fended off Steen at the second level and touched up running back Saquon Barkley. On the next play, he two-hand touched tight end Dallas Goedert after a sliding catch. I counted three more run plays in which Campbell was involved during the set. He did get washed out by Jurgens at one point. And in the "backed-up" period, he hesitated on a run blitz, and Barkley simply cut to the left and ran through the vacated gap. Zack Baun was equally impressive. He made the stop on Barkley's first tote. He often teamed up with Campbell on other run stops. Baun also intercepted quarterback Jalen Hurts on a deflected pass in a two-minute drill. He correctly anticipated a later throw and nearly had another pick, but receiver Elijah Moore somehow escaped with the catch.

The Eagles will not know their final rookie hierarchy until the pads come on in a few weeks, but several first-year players already have clear paths to immediate roles on offense, defense, and special teams.
Makai Lemon has the most obvious offensive opportunity. With A.J. Brown traded to New England and DeVonta Smith stepping into the No. 1 receiver role, Philadelphia needs a rookie who can add explosiveness, separation, and yards-after-catch ability. Lemon's draft status and skill set should give him every chance to become an early contributor, even with Marquise "Hollywood" Brown, Dontayvion Wicks , and Elijah Moore also competing for snaps.
Eli Stowers is another offensive rookie to watch. Dallas Goedert remains the top tight end, and Johnny Mundt gives the Eagles a blocking presence, but Stowers brings long-term receiving upside. If he can handle enough of the blocking and ***** ignment work, he could carve out a role in two-tight-end packages and red-zone situations.
Along the offensive line, Jake Majors , Hollin Pierce , Jaeden Roberts , Willie Lampkin , Myles Hinton , and Cameron Williams enter camp trying to earn depth roles. Philadelphia rarely rushes young linemen unless forced, but roster spots behind Jordan Mailata , Landon ***** erson , Cam Jurgens , Tyler Steen , and Lane Johnson remain important.
Defensively, Drew Mukuba has the clearest rookie path. The Eagles have reshaped the secondary, and Mukuba's range, instincts, and coverage versatility give him a chance to compete for meaningful safety snaps immediately. His development could also help Vic Fangio keep Cooper DeJean in a flexible nickel role.
