Last season — Jeff Stoutland’s Eagles offensive line was the best in the NFL. Loaded with Pro Bowl talent — the Eagles overpowered their way to an NFL Championship by both protecting Jalen Hurts and opening up huge running lanes for Saquon Barkley.
This season — injuries up front have stymied the running attack and frustrated the timing of the Eagles aerial assault. Lane Johnson, Landon Dickerson, Cam Jurgens, and Jordan Mailata have all been dealing with injuries.
While getting healthy would be the perfect holiday wish for the Eagles — adding and promoting some additional talent is always a plus. Two weeks ago — the Eagles opened the practice window for Guard/Center Willie Lampkin. The former All-American had a tremendous college career at both Coastal Carolina and also North Carolina. Lampkin was signed by the Los Angeles Rams as an undrafted free agent last year. He was then claimed by the Eagles in August.
This week — the Eagles opened the 21-Day Practice Window for their 191st Selection in the 2025 NFL Draft in Offensive Tackle Myles Hinton. The former National Champion helped to anchor offensive lines at both Stanford and also Michigan.
Jordan Mialata isn’t the only international star on the team from Australia. The Eagles placed offensive tackle Luke Felix-Fualalo Practice Squad Injured Reserve list this week. After a college career at both Hawaii and Utah — he was originally signed as a UDFA by the Seattle Seahawks and then by the Eagles at the end of August.
He may not be an option right now — but will be in the near future.
