The Philadelphia Eagles signed defensive tackle Bruce Hector to their practice
squad
Womens DeSean Jackson Jersey , according to an official announcement from the team. This news was very much expected. The Eagles waived Hector earlier
this week in order to call up fellow defensive tackle Treyvon Hester from the
practice squad.It’s clear the Eagles feel like the 26-year-old Hester is more
ready to contribute immediately than the 23-year-old undrafted rookie free agent
Hector. Hector only played in 20 snaps through the first four games of the
season.Just because the Eagles sent Hector down doesn’t mean they don’t like his
potential. Philadelphia gave him the most guaranteed money out of all their
undrafted rookie signings following the 2018 NFL Draft. Hector is clearly more
of a developmental player for Philly.Here’s an updated look at the Eagles’

OstmanCB Chandon Sullivan PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The defending Super Bowl champions
look mediocre.At the quarter point of the season, the Philadelphia Eagles (2-2)
have an inconsistent offense and a defense that can’t stop anyone on the
road.But coach Doug Pederson isn’t ready to make major changes following a 26-23
overtime loss at Tennessee.“We have to be more efficient in all three areas,
obviously, offense and defense,” Pederson said Monday. “But our efficiency as we
look at it as a staff and as coaches, we have to be careful that we are not just
on a whim swapping people out. If you start doing that, it starts moving other
people around as well.“We’re going to take these next couple of days and really
evaluate everybody, evaluate us as coaches, too
Cameron Johnston Jersey , and see if there’s a change to be made, we’ll make it. If not, then we’ll leave it alone. At the same time, we can also coach
a little bit better and get our guys prepared in a situation to play.”Defensive
coordinator Jim Schwartz watched his unit waste a 17-3 lead midway through the
third quarter by allowing a touchdown, field goal and touchdown on the next
three possessions. After the Eagles took a lead in overtime, the Titans
converted on fourth-and-15, fourth-and-4 and fourth-and-2 on the winning
drive.The secondary was torched by Marcus Mariota, who was 30 of 43 for 344
yards and two touchdowns. Ryan Fitzpatrick had 402 yards passing and four TDs
against the Eagles in Tampa’s 27-21 victory in Week 2.Cornerbacks Jalen Mills
and Ronald Darby are having trouble in one-on-one coverage, but lack of pressure
by the defensive linemen isn’t helping the coverage guys. Mills gave up several
big plays

tough. These corners are on islands a lot,” Pederson said. “I think I look at it
from an offensive perspective. When you see a guy that maybe you can attack, you
try to attack and that is what offenses are doing right now. And he’s a good
player, we have a lot of confidence in him, he has a lot of confidence in
himself, and a lot of it just comes down to just detail the work and understand
the situation. He is working through it, he’ll get better and we’ll get better
as a team.”The defense was missing safety Rodney McLeod, who had knee surgery
last week. Corey Graham replaced him and made a glaring mistake allowing the
conversion on fourth-and-15.At home, the defense has been dominant against Matt
Ryan and the Falcons and Andrew Luck and the Colts. On the road
Womens Richard Rodgers Jersey , it’s been a struggle.“We play at home, we’re in front of our crowd, it’s loud, our defense feeds off of that,” Pederson
said. “You go on the road, you’re playing in their home stadium, it’s loud. It’s
a strange dynamic. It’s hard to really put a finger on it, quite honestly,
because it’s the same players
Jordan Matthews Jersey , it’s the same scheme, same team, and we should end up almost feeding off the environment and all of that. But it’s something
that we can learn from, we will learn from, and we’ve got to fix it quick.”The
Eagles host the Minnesota Vikings (1-2-1) in an NFC championship game rematch on
Sunday. The stakes are lower but both teams are desperate for wins.
