Philadelphia Eagles WR Ifeanyi Momah wants to use his size (6-foot-7) to his advantage to help earn a roster spot with the team. Last training camp, Momah struggled adjusting to the pace of the Eagles offense, and he felt he didn’t utilize his size. Head Coach Chip Kelly has seen a marked improvement over last year. Momah is competing against WRs Arrelious Benn, Brad Smith and Josh Huff for a roster spot.

Eagles | LeSean McCoy praises Nick Foles

Philadelphia Eagles RB LeSean McCoy praised QB Nick Foles, saying this is the year Foles has a great season. ‘Nick, he wants to play, he wants to get better,’ McCoy said. ‘He’s playing lights-out even in camp, but he still wants to be at a higher level. He’s at that peak where people know him like, ‘Man, this Foles, is he that good?’ Because you see the stats, you see the numbers. I think this is the year he blows ’em out like, ‘Yeah, I’m Nick Foles. I’m Philadelphia’s quarterback. I’m the guy.’ And this is the year he blows it away.’
