The DiCecco Daily: Guess Who Else Just Popped Up On The Eagles' Injury Report? · Inside the Birds: A Philadelphia Eagles Podcast

• 0:10
  Speaker 1: Hello, everyone, and welcome into another episode of the Checo Daily.
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: It's Andrew DiCecco, Eagles beat reporter for InsideTheBirds.com. And apologies
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: for any background noise. I'm doing this on the road,
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: so you may hear a little bit.
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: Of some background noise.
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: But let's get to it, because the Eagles practiced on Thursday,
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: and there was a pretty extensive injury report yesterday. Not
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: practicing running back Saquon Barkley, hamstring. Wide receiver Hollywood Brown, ankle.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: Safety Marcus Epps, groin. Outside linebacker Jonathan Bernard, ankle. Center
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: Drew Kendall, knee. Wide receiver Devontae Smith, hamstring.
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: Limited.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: Linebacker Zach Bond, concussion. Linebacker Jihad Campbell, knee. Tight end
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: Dallas Goddard, knee. Tackle Fred Johnson, knee. Wide receiver Dontavion Wicks, hamstring.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: a full participant, cornerback Quinion Mitchell. So let's talk about
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: what all this means. And Thursday is a really critical
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: part of the week, and to not have Drew Kendall
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: on the field, and that was the first player that
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: I was looking for when I was out there, is
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: troubling because the Eagles don't have a lot of bodies
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: there right now on the offensive line. And Drew Kendall,
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: by the way, has been playing pretty well despite not
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: having a ton of experience. So The offensive line configuration,
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: and look, I'm not saying that this is what it's
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: going to be, but it's what it looked like when
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: we were out there for the media-attended portion of practice.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: Left tackle, Jordan Mailata. Left guard, Willie Lampkin. Center, Jake Majors.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: Right guard, Tyler Steen. Right tackle, Markel Bell. There's a
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: lot of ways they could go with it if Drew
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: Kendall doesn't play, and right now it's trending in a
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: negative direction. But they also could put Willie Lampkin at
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: center and Micah Morris at left guard.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: They could put Jake Majors at left guard if they
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: like him there.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: And look, right now the Eagles are in dire straits
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: and they don't have a ton of healthy offensive linemen.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: So looking at the roster right.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: Now, they're going to have to get John Ajuku in
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: all likelihood on the 53 or available for Sunday in
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: some capacity. And the same for Jake Majors, who's on
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: the practice. Both players are on the practice squad, by
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: the way, I should say.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: But Drew Kendall coming up with.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: The knee puts the Eagles in a bind, especially now
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: that they've traded away Cam Juergens. And look, with Willie Lampkin,
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: I believe that he will start. It's just a matter
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: of where. And he gives you a... Unique player in
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: the sense that, yes, he's 5'11, 290. We've been over this.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: Everyone knows that who's seen him out there. But it's
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: his technical prowess that I think I've been most taken
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: aback by. He's really technically sound. He has heavy and
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: active hands, a powerful base. He's an explosive athlete. I
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: like what I've seen from him in training camp. I
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: like what I saw in the preseason. But understand that
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: the regular season, when you're going against a pretty strong
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: defensive line in the Jacksonville Jaguars, is a totally different beast.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: So for me to sit here and tell you that
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: he's going to excel, he's.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Going to play great, I can't say that. I won't
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: know until you see him out there and going after
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: these guys out there. But what I can tell you
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: is the Eagles are high on him. I know that.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: You listen to Nick Sirianni speak glowingly about him. and
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: different teammates, especially at training camp. Jordan Davis referred to
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: him as a bowling ball of knives. So there's a
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: lot of affinity there for Willie Lampkin and what he
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: can provide. And tough as nails. An easy guy to
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: want to see do well. He has a really endearing
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: personality and a really fascinating story.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: And he's come up through the ranks the hard way.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: I drafted free agent with the Rams.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: He spent last season on IR with the Eagles, never
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: got to see any game action.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: But... the intrigue was always there.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: And so I look at Willie Lampkin as, as someone
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: who is really weighted in the wings.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: He's worked really hard.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: Um, he talked about his growth coming on the mental side.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: I think the wrestling background really helps them in terms
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: of hand placement and combating with defensive linemen. So we'll
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: see where he ends up going, whether it's center or
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: left guard, but he is a player.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: That I think, um, eventually will make an impact.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: And I say eventually because there might be some growing
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: pains first go of it. He's never started an NFL game.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: And so that needs to be taken into account. But
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: this situation is further complicated by trading away Cam Juergens
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: now that Drew Kendall's battling this knee issue. We'll see
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: if Drew's out there on Friday. I mean, it's not
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: definitive that he's not going to play. It's certainly trending
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: in that direction, but we'll have to see what Friday reveals,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: whether he's limited, if he's out there. That's positive news
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: for the Eagles, but I got a lot of questions
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: about who is Jake Majors. Okay, we've all talked about
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: him in training camp. I've written about him on InsideTheBirds.com.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: He's Had a press scrum after one of the practices.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: I spoke to him there as well. This is someone
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: who was on the practice squad all of last season.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: He signed a futures deal and came back for another
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: run at it. I thought I had him on my
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: 53 actually as the 11th offensive lineman because I thought
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: he did some really good things in the second half
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: of training camp. picked it up after kind of a
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: slower start, but he played guard and he played center.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: He was an acclaimed center at Texas where he set
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: a program record with 56 starts, really sharp-minded guy as
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: most centers are, well-spoken. You get the sense that he,
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: and this is based off of my understanding from the
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: pre-draft process, he just has a really good feel for
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: reading and diagnosing defenses and He's a smart guy. And
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: that experience from Texas, which is a high-level college football program,
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: certainly helped him. And he proved that he's durable and
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: tough and can battle through some things.
• 6:44

• 9:46
  Speaker 1: We had a chance to speak to Jake Majors in
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: the locker room. We spoke to Damian Pierce, the running
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: back who was just signed to the 53-man roster. I
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: asked him, what compelled you to return to Philadelphia.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: After a cut-down?
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: I'm sure he had other options. But he said, Nick Sirianni.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: And he spoke about that he's a vibrant guy. He
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: loves what he does. Nick Sirianni spoke glowingly about Damian
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: Pierce the other day.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: So it seems like that's one of Nick Sirianni's guys.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: And I kind of put that in the same bucket
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: as a Zach Paschal from years past. Nick Sirianni still
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: talks about Zach Paschal. He loves Dontavion Wicks. And when
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: you saw him really gush over Damian Pierce and then
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: Damian Pierce mentioning that the reason why he wanted to
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: return to Philadelphia was Nick Sirianni, I think speaks volumes
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: to Nick Sirianni as a coach for Philadelphia. being able
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: to relate to his players and having a personality that
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: gravitates and why players want to be in Philadelphia.
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: I think that's really important.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: But Damian Pierce stands to see his first meaningful work
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: in a little bit. And it's been a while since
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: he's really been able to find his footing. Injuries have
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: been an issue for him. I know that at one
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: point when he was with the Houston Texans, it looked
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: like he was ready to be their franchise running back
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: and it just didn't happen. But I believe you're going
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: to see the running back tandem of Will Shipley and
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: Damian Pierce. And they're going to need to add another
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: running back. You can't go into a game with just
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: two running backs. Remember, Saquon's injured with the hamstring and
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: Tank Bixby's on injured reserve right now. So I would imagine, well,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: it has to be one of Carson Steele or Jaden Blue.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: I would imagine Carson Steele would make a little bit
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: more sense. Only because he's been here from the beginning,
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: he gives you a little bit of a different body type.
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: Maybe he can help you in pass protection.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: And I think he does give you some value, some
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: added value on special teams, which is going to be
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: a big factor with Will Shipley taking on now a
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: more prominent role and Will being a core four player.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: So that's the running back situation right now. But on
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: the offensive line, as I mentioned earlier, I would imagine
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: that John Ajuku and Jake Majors are going to be
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: two players that one way or another are going to...
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: have to be available for the Eagles Sunday in London
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: because they just.
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: Don't have a lot of bodies. And both players give
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: you versatility. Jake can play center and guard. John can
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: play tackle, both tackle spots and guard.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: And he's really more of a right tackle. I had
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: a good conversation with him on Wednesday, I believe it was,
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: about his role behind the scenes in helping prepare Markel
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: Bell and Willie Lampkin.
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: When he's on the look team, he's really.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: emulating what the Jacksonville Jaguars defensive linemen do and really
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: trying to do a proper simulation to prepare Willie and
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: Markel for what they can expect. And not just those guys,
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: the entire offensive line. And you mentioned the breaking down
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: film and And really, that's a Monday and a Tuesday
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: thing where they go over it.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: So it just goes to show you, and this is
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: why I.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: Really like talking to and about every player on the roster,
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: because it goes beyond the star players. They're obviously going
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: to be the most critical to the team's success, but
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: you also have players on the practice squad and bottom
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: of the roster guys that all of a sudden are
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: thrust into more prominent roles and There's obviously an appetite
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: to learn more about them, and that's what someone like
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: John Ajuku does to help prepare the players that you're
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: going to see in the starting lineup on Sunday, go
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: out there and put their best foot forward.
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: There's also the wide receiver situation.
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: Dontavion Wicks pops up with a hamstring injury, and he's
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: their wide receiver one right now while Devontae Smith is
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: on the shelf with his hamstring injury. So where do
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: the Eagles go from here? Obviously, it's still really early. Well,
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: not really early, but it is early. They have a
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: Friday practice, and they still have a couple of days
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: until they have.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: To actually play. But it is a hamstring injury.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: And as I've outlined, those soft tissue injuries can be
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: a little fickle and creep up.
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: On you and linger. Sometimes when you get it, it's
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: the next day where you really feel it.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: And he wasn't on the injury report the previous day,
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: so that would suggest that it crept up on On
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: Thursday's practice, not a good sign. We'll see what Friday's
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: injury report holds, but the Eagles are really light at
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: wide receiver. Let's take Dontavion Wicks out of the equation
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: for a moment. That leaves you then with Darius Cooper,
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: Makai Lemon, Britton Covey, and Elijah Moore. They have Eric
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: Azucanmo on the practice squad, who was with the Eagles
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: in training camp, but.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: Not a lot of options to turn to there, especially
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: on a short week in the event that Wicks can't play.
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: And that's a passing game that's already struggling and trying
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: to really find its way right now. So to potentially
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: be without Dontavion Wicks is certainly troubling. But it does
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: seem like Dallas Goddard is trending in a positive direction.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: He was limited once again with the knee injury.
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: And I would imagine that as long as there's no
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: setbacks and he can, again, be a limited participant on Friday,
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: that should bode well for his availability for Sunday. And
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: then you have to wonder what that would mean for
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: Zach Ertz. I just mentioned all the other players that
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: are probably going to have to find their way onto
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: the roster.
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: And be available for the Eagles Sunday in London tomorrow.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: I mean, if you have Dallas Gower, you have Johnny Mutt,
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: you have EJ Jenkins, I don't know that you really
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: have the luxury.
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: Of elevating or signing Zach.
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: Ertz to the 53 at this point. That's not to
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: say that down the line, maybe next week or whatever,
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: when injuries clear up and you have a better idea
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: of where things stand, that maybe you don't revisit that.
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: But when you talk about having to get two offensive linemen,
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: another running back, potentially have to figure out wide receiver
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: and I guess you could also look at it and
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: say well if you are in fact.
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: Down Dontavion Wicks for the game maybe.
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: Adding another receiving option like a Zach Ertz could be
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: your answer there to kind of offset.
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: Hey Philly fans game day is stressful enough parking traffic
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: long lines we've all been there but when it comes
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: to your cannabis it's Camden Apothecary makes it easy. This
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: is the dispensary for sports fans. Just minutes outside of

  Speaker 3: Philly with plenty of free parking. You'll be in and
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: out fast. No hassle, no waiting. And they don't just
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: care about convenience. Camden Apothecary is all about the guest experience.
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: Their staff makes sure you feel taken care of every
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: time you walk in. Plus, they carry only the best

  Speaker 3: up for the tailgate, the watch party, or celebrating a

  Speaker 3: big win, you know you're getting the good stuff without overpaying.
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: They even show love to the community with specials for fans, students,
• 17:10

  Speaker 3: great prices, and an experience made for Philly fans 21
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: and up.
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: The positional shortage is.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: I'm really fascinated to see how the Eagles go about
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: filling out the roster because they are awfully, awfully.
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: Banged up right now at this time.
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: We'll get a little bit more clarity Friday at practice
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: and then certainly when the final injury report comes out afterwards.
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: But we'll have to see.
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: Now, this is the second consecutive day that Jonathan Grenard
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: has not practiced. And as we understand it, based off
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: of Ian Rappaport's report, he was deemed day-to-day with the
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: ankle injury. For an edge rusher, that is a critical
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: injury to have. So, again, I don't know if that's
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: something that you want to rush him back. He's been
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: really productive when he's been out there in terms of
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: just generating pressure, and you can see the impact that
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: he has when he's out there. But, again, as much
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: as I'm sure the Eagles would love him out there,
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: you've got to take proper precaution when you're talking about
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: these kind of injuries and Well, man, we'll see. We'll
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: see what Friday's practice has in store. And we'll hear
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: from Nick Sirianni Friday morning. Right now, that's going to
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: do it for this edition of the Checo Daily. I
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: am Andrew DiCecco, and I'll catch you all on the
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: next one.
