PHILADELPHIA EAGLES (16-3)
OPEN CAMP: July 25 Jourdan Lewis Jersey , NovaCare Complex, Philadelphia
LAST YEAR: Won first Super Bowl title and franchise’s first NFL championship since 1960, defeating Bill Belichick, Tom Brady and Patriots. Overcame losing several key players to injury, including QB Carson Wentz, LT Jason Peters, LB Jordan Hicks and others. Backup QB Nick Foles led way after Wentz tore ACL in Week 14 Authentic Allen Robinson Jersey , earning Super Bowl MVP honors. Coach Doug Pederson’s offense was balanced yet aggressive. Players bought into team-first attitudes. Defense thrived under coordinator Jim Schwartz. DT Fletcher Cox anchored deep line that included Super Bowl hero Brandon Graham. Special teams were solid despite losing PR Darren Sproles. Rookie K Jake Elliott showed strong leg.
IMPORTANT ADDITIONS: DE Michael Bennett, DT Haloti Ngata, WR Mike Wallace, LB Corey Nelson, TE Richard Rodgers, rookie TE Dallas Goedert.
IMPORTANT LOSSES: Offensive coordinator Frank Reich, QB coach John DeFilippo Michael Grabner Jersey , TE Trey Burton, RB LeGarrette Blount, DE Vinny Curry, CB Patrick Robinson, LB Mychal Kendricks, WR Torrey Smith, DT Beau Allen Darren Helm Jersey , TE Brent Celek, P Donnie Jones.
CAMP NEEDS: Wentz will be closely monitored but there’s no urgency to rush him with Foles still on team. His rehab will be biggest story this summer. Other key players returning from injury include Peters, Hicks, Sproles, special teams ace Chris Maragos and DT Tim Jernigan. Defense needs LB to emerge as replacement for Kendricks and CB to replace Robinson at nickel spot. Both QBs need to build chemistry with new Nos. 2-3 TEs.
EXPECTATIONS: Trying to become first Super Bowl champs to repeat since 2003-04 Patriots, and anything less will be considered disappointment. Wentz, Peters and other star players who missed playoffs last year are determined to win it all and won’t let teammates get complacent. Overall John Riggins Jersey , team improved on paper but it’ll be difficult to match unique bond last year’s group had.

Bills quarterback Josh Allen came out of Sunday’s preseason game late in the first half for a concussion check.
Allen, who started against the Bengals, banged his head hard on the turf after a hit by Carlos Dunlap. He got up holding his head, but still stayed in one play — a handoff — before officials stopped the game to get Allen a concussion check.
Allen headed to the locker room a few plays before his teammates did for halftime. Nathan Peterman replaced him.
Allen completed only 6 of 12 passes for 34 yards but got no help from his offensive line. He was sacked five times and hit three others as the Bills finished with minus-5 net passing yards in the first half.
Officials cited right guard John Miller for two false starts and a leg-whip, and Marshall Newhouse had a holding penalty.
UPDATE 5:50 P.M. ET: Allen was cleared of a concussion and returned to the sideline for the second half.
