When young quarterback Carson Wentz suffered an ACL tear early in the season, no one really thought the Eagles would be able to make it to the Super Bowl without him but the Eagles proved everyone wrong. And judging from their individual player’s stats, they arguably have some of the best players in the league for at least the next few years. Seventeen of their 22 starters will be with them through 2019, including the entire offensive line. And the Eagles’ defensive line is in even better shape with Cox, Barnett, and Jernigan signed through 2021. Simply stated, Howie Roseman put together a championship team that is set up for long-term dominance.
Key Takeaways:
- When top draft pick Carson Wentz suffered an ACL tear earlier in the season, no one thought The Eagles had a chance of going to the Super Bowl.
- It came as a surprise to most fans when The Eagles made it all the way to the Super Bowl with their JV team and without their star quarter back Carson Wentz.
- With a strong 53-man roster that includes solid offensive and defensive lines, The Eagles are expected to be Super Bowl contenders for the next several years.
“The only unsigned starter is Nigel Bradham, who shouldn’t be too difficult to bring back, as other teams around the NFL may be wary of possible suspensions coming his way.”
