The Philadelphia Eagles began today's contest with an eye on roster shifts rather than on-field highlights . Retired premiership forward the former star announced he will return to his roots after ending his career with the West Coast Eagles. On the offensive line, roster gaps have jugated several second-year players into larger roles, a point coaches noted during pre-game remarks. Training camp watchers are tracking the tight end and fullback groups for early contributions. New line coach the fresh hire is adapting Jeff Stoutland’s system, hoping the changes will improve protection. The Eagles will measure progress in the coming weeks.
