The 2010 first-round pick had a rough start to his NFL career but has since developed into one of the league's best defensive ends.

The Eagles appear to be going in house, possibly elevating both... Read More

Eagles Tight End Brent Celek Could Retire

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Brent Celek could retire this offseason. Talk about going out on top. Celek was the blocking element of the Eagles tight ends, playing behind pass-catcher Zach Ertz. Celek was in on just over 40 percent of the offensive snaps taken by the Eagles in 2017. Celek has spent all 11 years... Read More

Kenny Vaccaro Drawing Interest From Cowboys

Free-agent defensive back Kenny Vaccaro has drawn interest from the Dallas Cowboys, according to a source.

Zach Ertz Scores a Huge Touchdown in the Super Bowl

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz caught seven of his nine targets in the Super Bowl, gaining 67 yards and scoring a touchdown. Ertz continually gained enough yards to move the chains and eventually scored a huge 11-yard touchdown. Ertz is an unquestioned TE1 in fantasy, and a top-three player at his position along with... Read More

Torrey Smith Catches Five Passes in the Super Bowl

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Torrey Smith caught five of his nine targets in the Super Bowl, gaining 49 yards. Smith was disappointingly inconsistent this season, defining the boom-or-bust stereotype, without enough booms to justify the busts. If he remains in the same role next season, he won't be worth owning in the majority of formats.

Nelson Agholor Catches Nine Passes in the Super Bowl

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor was targeted 11 times in the Super Bowl, catching nine passes for 84 yards. He also ran the ball once for nine yards. He was clearly part of the game plan for the Eagles, and should remain the same for next season. Agholor had a slow start to his... Read More

Alshon Jeffery Catches Three Passes in the Super Bowl

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery caught three passes on eight targets in the Super Bowl, gaining 73 yards and scoring a touchdown.

Corey Clement Delivers Huge Plays in the Super Bowl

Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Corey Clement ran the ball three times for eight yards in the Super Bowl, adding four catches for 100 yards and a touchdown.

LeGarrette Blount Has an Excellent Revenge Game in the Super Bowl

Jay Ajayi Makes the Most of Limited Touches in the Super Bowl

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jay Ajayi ran the ball nine times for 57 yards in the Super Bowl. Ajayi had a 26-yard run in the second quarter, but was out-touched by a very effective LeGarrette Blount.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Nick Foles won Super Bowl 52 MVP on Sunday, leading his team to a victory over the New England Patriots. Foles completed 28-of-43 passes for 373 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception.

The American League Central comes second in our series of 2018 Early Bullpen Outlooks. Check out the first of the series, on the American League East, right here.

La'el Collins Restructures His Contract With Cowboys

Dallas Cowboys offensive tackle La'el Collins had $150,000 of his 2018 salary converted into a signing bonus.

Collins... Read More

Alex Reyes Enters 2018 Without a Set Role

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Alex Reyes is already in Jupiter, Fla., getting a head start on spring training.

Eagles Fully Healthy Heading Into Super Bowl Weekend

The Philadelphia Eagles are fully healthy heading into the weekend of the Super Bowl.

Torrey Smith Not a Safe Bet to Repeat His Last Performance

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Torrey Smith had a nice game the last time the Eagles played, totaling 69 yards. Most of that was on a 41-yard flea-flicker play, and Smith has only amassed 61 yards total in every other Nick Foles start combined. He's a boom-or-bust player without the huge boom upside to be worth... Read More

Nelson Agholor Faces a Good Matchup in the Super Bowl

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor has been trending downwards lately, but he has the best matchup of any Eagles pass catcher on Sunday for Super Bowl 52.

Alshon Jeffery Will Face Yet Another Strong Cornerback in the Super Bowl

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery was no stranger to elite cornerback play this season, and he'll get to deal with it yet again in the Super Bowl this Sunday.

Zach Ertz Faces a Tough Matchup In Super Bowl

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz faces a tough matchup in the New England Patriots defense this Sunday in the Super Bowl. He is still Zach Ertz, though, and that always makes for a good option at tight end. The Patriots defense only allowed four tight ends to reach 50 yards this season, with 68... Read More
