PHILADELPHIA – During Sunday evening’s open practice, new Eagles linebackers Myles Jack and Zach Cunningham watched as 50,000 fans inside Lincoln Financial Field watched their teammates run around doing drills and playing situational football. Two days removed from their initial experience in Philadelphia, they were on the NovaCare Complex practice field Tuesday, participating in their first practice as Eagles and getting a lot of playing time early.
With Nakobe Dean still sidelined because of an ankle injury, Jack lined up with Nicholas Morrow when the first-team defense was on the field during full team sessions and in seven-on-seven, rotating occasionally with Christian Elliss. Cunningham worked on the second team with Shaun Bradley, acclimating to the defensive linemen in front while flowing to the ball. Both players did well locating the ball carrier, scraping to the hole that was opening up, and helping to clog it.
