Here’s the latest on Philadelphia Eagles news and updates…
Reed Blankenship might catch the eye of Cowboys’ new DC Christian Parker
As Christian Parker aims to reshape the Cowboys’ defense, he understands that free agency will be crucial to his success, especially since they’ve struggled historically in this area. With many defensive roles needing improvement, Parker will likely have a say in the free agents he wants, which could potentially include former Eagles safety Reed Blankenship. Blankenship has impressively transitioned from an undrafted free agent to a three-year starter and captain, recognized for his meticulous approach and leadership qualities on the field.
Vic Fangio weighs retirement possibilities
Reports indicate that Eagles defensive coordinator Vic Fangio is contemplating retirement. However, sources suggest there’s hope he will return for at least another season, pending a final decision.
Introducing a New Offensive Coordinator
The addition of Grizzard to enhance the passing game is a strategic move given his background as both an offensive coordinator and a passing game coordinator. His experience under Mike McDaniel familiarizes him with the Shanahan system. Cohesion among the coaching staff will be vital for the Eagles as they gear up for 2026. If the newly added minds can work together, there’s potential for a significant improvement in the offense, alongside questions on player commitment and overall health.
Analyzing Offensive Strategies Under Mannion and Grizzard
Last season, the Packers excelled in utilizing out-breaking routes. The Eagles may adopt similar strategies in 2026, with concepts like mesh routes that can effectively counter various types of defensive coverages.
