The Philadelphia Eagles will hold their one-day mandatory minicamp on Tuesday, June 10. 

Coming off their Super Bowl win, the Eagles will be zeroing in on blending fresh talent into their lineup while sizing up some heated position battles ahead.

Here's an overview of what to look out for during Tuesday's mandatory minicamp:


4 Burning Questions Heading Into Eagles Mandatory Minicamp 

1. Do the Eagles have enough help at edge rusher?

After trading Bryce Huff and losing other veterans, the Eagles have holes at edge.

Potential upgrades? Trade talks are swirling around the likes of Myles Garrett, and other veterans like Von Miller or Za'Darius Smith could be targets. Or the Eagles could reply on their internal options like Nolan Smith, Jalyx Hunt, and Azeez Ojulari to carry the load. 

Prediction: The Eagles end up turning to outside help for depth security

2. What are the Eagles doing at right guard?

After losing Mekhi Becton to free agency, the Eagles face a competitive battle at right guard this offseason. Tyler Steen, who stepped into the role late in 2024, has largely run with the first-team right guard reps during early OTAs. 

He’s being challenged by Kenyon Green, whom the Eagles acquired from Houston, and veteran Matt Pryor, who brings proven versatility to the frontline. Trevor Keegan and Drew Kendall also provide depth, though they are more depth pieces while they rack up exprience. 

Prediction: Tyler Steen wins the job while Drew Kendall surpsises coaches. 

3. Who will be an early riser at safety and cornerback?

There are question marks in the Eagles' secondary after losing Darius Slay and C.J Gardner-Johnson this offseason. 

At safety, Reed Blankenship returns, but competition has emerged from Sydney Brown and rookie Andrew Mukuba.

Meanwhile at cornerback, Kelee Ringo and Adoree’ Jackson will be competing to play opposite Quinyon Mitchell, but depth remains a concern.

We also can't leave out what Cooper DeJean, whom the Eagles plan to play at both positions in certain packages. 

Prediction: Andrew Makuba rises early at safey while Kelee Ringo takes the lead for the starting CB2 job. 

4. What's the relationship looking like between QB Jalen Hurts and new OC Kevin Patullo?

Quarterback Jalen Hurts will be working under his fourth offensive coordinator with Kevin Patullo replacing Kellen Moore. It helps that Patullo was an internal hire but with his new position its important that he and Hurts establish a solid relationship this early in the offseason. 

Prediction: There should be no issues between the two as long as Jalen Hurts gets to run the show. 


Eagles Key Injury Outlooks 

  • Rookie LB Jihaad Campbell
    Campbell is recovering from his March shoulder labrum surgery. He was unable to practice in OTAs but still did some walk-through reps. He's no expected to return to full speed until August training camp. 
  • LB Nolan Smith
    Smith underwent triceps surgery following the Super Bowl. He is still rehabbing and there is no current timeline on when he will return. 

Eagles Minicamp Practice Dates

The Eagles will hold their lone mandatory minicamp practice on Tuesday, June 10. 

This marks the final phase of their offseason program after six sessions of Organized Team Activities (OTAs). During mandatory minicamp, players participate in drills like 7-on-7, 9-on-7, and 11-on-11, but without full contact or pads. 

Players who don't attend will be fined.
