Foxboro Focus: six Eagles to watch in joint practices with the Patriots

At the Eagles-Patriots joint practices in Foxboro, six Eagles will be under the microscope: quarterback Jalen Hurts will test Sean Mannion’s offense against a new defensive look, Dontayvion Wicks will try to prove he can handle a bigger WR role with DeVonta Smith sidelined, Jalen Carter is primed to disrupt, Jihaad Campbell and Andrew Mukuba look for year-two leaps on defense, and cornerback Quinyon Mitchell will be shadowing A.J. Brown in entertaining matchups as teams treat joint practices as a valuable precursor to the regular season.

Eagles Camp Stock Watch: Hunt and Carter Spark Early Momentum as Lemon Struggles

Six practices into Eagles training camp, Jalyx Hunt and Jalen Carter have emerged as stock-ups with disruptive play, Tank Bigsby bringing high-effort versatility, and Dontayvion Wicks solidifying the No. 2 receiver role behind DeVonta Smith (earning Hurts’ trust). Drew Kendall and Markel Bell provide depth on the line. Stock-down notes include Makai Lemon’s hamstring setback and slower starts for Ty Robinson, Eli Stowers, Will Shipley, and Fred Johnson as the team evaluates its rotation early in camp.

Wicks Surges as Goedert Re-emerges in Wet Day 6 Eagles Camp

Day 6 of Eagles camp was soggy with limited first-team reps, but Dallas Goedert connected on three targets from Hurts, suggesting he may see more involvement alongside DeVonta Smith. Dontayvion Wicks has emerged as Hurts’ favored secondary option with Smith sidelined, while other receivers like Cooper and Elijah Moore contribute. Joshua Weru shows versatility on defense, and backups Dalton and McKee rotated reps. A side note mentions Zach Ertz being cleared to return and potential mid-August signing; the tone remains positive about Hurts’ evolving target distribution and the team’s pass-catcher depth.

Eagles Day 5 Camp: McKee Shines While Offense Struggles Without Key Receivers

Day 5 of Eagles camp was hot and uneven as Lane Johnson, DeVonta Smith and Makai Lemon sat out; Markel Bell got first-team RT reps with Johnson out. Tanner McKee led the second-team QB reps and had his best day of camp, while Jalen Hurts struggled on deep shots, including an interception by Michael Carter on a pass intended for Hollywood Brown. Dontayvion Wicks had multiple solid catches, a red-zone moment with Darius Cooper nearly ruled in but went out of bounds, and the defense held its own, highlighting ongoing work on offensive rhythm during a 1 hour 50 minute practice.

Eagles Day 2 Camp: RBs Find Daylight as Hurts Wobbles, Wicks Delivers

Eagles Day 2 Camp: RBs Find Daylight as Hurts Wobbles, Wicks Delivers

Day 2 of Eagles training camp was non-padded but productive for the run game, with Barkley, Tank Bigsby, and Elijah Mitchell all ripping long carries behind the first-team line. Jalen Hurts had a shaky session, with low throws to DeVonta Smith and an underthrown ball that nearly drew a pick, though he did connect on a boot to Dontayvion Wicks, which stood out as the play of the day. Cole Payton struggled, throwing three interceptions (one deflected off Danny Gray into A.J. Epenesa, plus picks by Chance Campbell and Keyshawn James-Newby). The defense looked stout, especially the first-team secondary; the second-team interior DL rotation featured Graham, with Carter and Davis as starters and Byron Young, Gabe Hall in the mix. Jake Elliott went 6-for-7 on kicks. Cameron Williams left practice injured and was carted off, with likely update on the injury report forthcoming; no other injuries were listed.

Wicks shines as Eagles' Day 2 camp highlights defensive strength

Day 2 of the Eagles’ 2026 training camp featured a 1h32m session with Cameron Williams sidelined by injury and Jonathan Greenard on the PUP list; QB2 duties rotated between Andy Dalton and Tanner McKee as rookie Cole Payton struggled with three interceptions. Johnny Mundt worked with the first-team in 12-personnel looks, while Vic Fangio’s defense repeatedly pressured Jalen Hurts. Dontayvion Wicks delivered the day’s standout catch, DeVonta Smith showed separation and reliability, and the camp continued to evaluate depth at corner and other spots with kickers and other notes included.

Packers trade Wicks to Eagles, gain cap space and extra draft picks

Green Bay traded wideout Dontayvion Wicks to Philadelphia for a 2025 fifth-round pick (No. 153) and a 2027 sixth-rounder, plus Wicks’s one-year extension with the Eagles through 2027. The move creates about $2.6 million in salary-cap space (roughly $25 million now) and frees up room to extend players like Christian Watson, Jayden Reed, or Tucker Kraft. Wicks’ 2025 production was modest (30 receptions, 332 yards, 2 TDs), though he had a standout Thanksgiving game against Detroit. With Wicks out, Matthew Golden’s opportunities should rise in Year 2, and Green Bay adds eight picks this year (one each in the second, third, fourth, sixth rounds and two in the fifth and seventh rounds) plus a 2027 sixth-rounder, strengthening Gutekunst’s draft capital while leaving no current first-round pick due to past trades.

Green Bay is trading wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks to Philadelphia for a pair of Day 3 picks (2026 fifth-round and 2027 sixth-round) and is signing him to a one-year, $12.5 million extension.

Eagles Acquire Dontayvion Wicks, Sign One-Year Extension as Brown Trade Buzz Grows

The Philadelphia Eagles acquired wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks from the Green Bay Packers for a 2026 fifth-round pick and a 2027 sixth-round pick, with Wicks signing a one-year extension. The move, aided by Wicks’ familiarity with Eagles OC Sean Mannion, signals potential plans if A.J. Brown is traded after June 1 and could position Wicks as a potential No. 2 receiver behind DeVonta Smith.
