Eagles 53-man roster predictions after one week of training camp
The Eagles arrived for the start of the 2022 training camp with several news faces via free agency and an NFL draft class that landed several A grades from experts and analysts.
Philadelphia finished up offseason workouts, and several players made strides toward securing starting jobs after solid OTA periods and individual sessions.
With the Eagles now working towards the preseason season opener against the Jets, here’s an updated 53-man roster prediction after one week of training camp practices.

For months, the opinion was that undrafted rookie free agent Carson Strong would unseat Sinnett for the third quarterback spot on the roster. Preseason games will be a valuable proving point, but as of now, Sinnett gets the nod.

Reagor makes his way back on the 53-man roster due to Zach Pascal getting food poisoning and Greg Ward having a quiet camp, along with a toe injury. Reagor’s production during the looming joint practice sessions with the Browns and Dolphins will also play a massive part in his future.

Covey was electric during the offseason program and his abilities in the return game could give the former Utah wide receiver an advantage over Greg Ward, Deon Cain and John Hightower.

The primary backup at left tackle to Jordan Mailata, Dillard is an insurance policy the playoff-bound Eagles have to hang onto.

A talented backup tackle behind both Jordan Mailata and Lane Johnson, Clark is highly thought of by GM Howie Roseman.

Driscoll is a viable option at right guard and he can swing to the tackle position as well.
