After being widely viewed as the linebacker of the future, Nakobe Dean entered the summer as one of the Philadelphia Eagles’ biggest question marks.

After watching the Philadelphia Eagles’ offense look downright bad in 2023, with then-offensive coordinator Brian Johnson seemingly unwilling to throw the ball across the middle of the field despite having a certified YAC machine in AJ Brown, one of the most exciting developments of the summer has been the absolute dominance of Jalen Hurts as […]
