Philadelphia Eagles 2025 Season Preview: Can the Super Bowl Champs Defend Their Title?
Explore the Philadelphia Eagles' 2025 season outlook, key players, and position battles as they aim to defend their Super Bowl title.

Training Camp Insights
The Philadelphia Eagles' 2025 training camp commenced on July 22 at the NovaCare Complex in South Philadelphia. The defending Super Bowl champions boast a star-studded offensive lineup featuring running back Saquon Barkley, receivers A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith, and quarterback Jalen Hurts. A significant change this season is the appointment of Kevin Patullo as the new offensive coordinator, replacing Kellen Moore, who now heads the New Orleans Saints.
Defensive Challenges
On the defensive front, the Eagles face challenges with the departure of key players such as edge rushers Brandon Graham and Josh Sweat, cornerback Darius Slay, safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson, and defensive tackle Milton Williams. Rising stars like Nolan Smith Jr. and Jalyx Hunt are expected to fill some gaps, but the team will need additional players to step up across all defensive levels.
Players to Watch
- CB Kelee Ringo: The third-year Georgia alumnus may secure a starting role following Slay's departure. His development will be crucial to complementing the defensive backfield led by Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean.
- S Andrew Mukuba: Drafted in the second round, Mukuba led the SEC with five interceptions for Texas. He will compete for the starting safety position opposite Reed Blankenship.
- RB AJ Dillon: Signed to a one-year deal, Dillon, with 2,428 career rushing yards, will vie for the backup role behind Barkley.
Key Position Battles
- Right Guard: Tyler Steen is the frontrunner to replace Mekhi Becton, with Kenyon Green also in contention.
- Linebacker: With Nakobe Dean rehabbing, Jeremiah Trotter Jr. and Jihaad Campbell are potential starters alongside Zack Baun.
Offensive Coordinator Transition
Kevin Patullo's appointment marks the fifth different playcaller in six seasons for Jalen Hurts. The team hopes for a smoother transition given Patullo's familiarity with head coach Nick Sirianni's system.
