Philadelphia Eagles RB LeSean McCoy fully expects QB Nick Foles to continue succeeding in the team’s offense the way he did last season. ‘Nick, he wants to play, he wants to get better. He’s playing lights out even in camp, but he still wants to be at a higher level,’ McCoy said. ‘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.’

Buccaneers | Mike Evans getting into shape
Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Mike Evans (hamstring) is working out with Chicago Bears WR Brandon Marshall in Miami and said he has no lingering issues from a hamstring injury. He also said he needs to drop 7 to 10 pounds. ‘Physically, I’m not in tip-top shape. I’m getting back into my game shape,’ said Evans. ‘As far as injury-wise, I feel good. I’ve been running, and I feel 100 percent. I’ve got to lose more weight. I’m too heavy right now. But the workouts I’ve been doing, I’ll be fine. I’ll be ready.’

Arizona Cardinals OG Paul Fanaika is entering training camp as the starting right guard.
Footballguys View: The Cardinals constantly have issues along the offensive line for some time and last season Fanaika was part of the problem. He struggled all last year and will be pushed by fourth round pick Earl Watford. Getting Jonathan Cooper back and adding Jared Veldheer back will help the line, but we’re concerned about the right side and what that could mean for Carson Palmer, the passing game in general and the ground attack.
