The Philadelphia Eagles have a couple players who could contend for the MVP award.
The Philadelphia Eagles have a couple players who could contend for the MVP award. originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Philadelphia Eagles were able to win the second Super Bowl in franchise history this past season, and it was due in no small part to the spectacular play from their stars. Advertisement But some think they could get even better in the 2025 season. In a recent article by Bleacher Report's Brad Gagnon, he gives five "under-the-radar" candidates for the NFL Most Valuable Player Award this season. The reigning Super Bowl champions happen to have two players on his list, the first of which is star quarterback Jalen Hurts. "Jalen Hurts' fantastic supporting cast probably cost him MVP consideration in 2024, and that's a shame because the uniquely talented star was the NFL's fifth-highest-rated passer while producing a combined 32 touchdowns," Gagnon wrote. "The problem is only 18 of those came through the air, and the tush push doesn't win over too many voters. However, if Hurts can bolster that number in particular, he could have a chance." The Eagles may run the tush-push for a lot of Hurts' rushing touchdowns, but that does not take away the fact that he is an excellent player. If he can bring his passing touchdown number up, he could be a candidate for MVP this season. Advertisement The other play Gagnon thinks could be a sleeper is the Eagles' running back, Saquon Barkley. "The running back and Hurts could again cancel each other out to a degree, and both benefit from the tremendous talent around them," Gagnon wrote. "However, if the Eagles quarterback missed time and more were to fall on Barkley's shoulders—and if Hurts could deliver for a contender—an MVP run is not out of the realm of possibility." The last time a non-quarterback won the MVP award was back in 2012 when future Hall of Fame running back Adrian Peterson won it in 2012. But if there is one person who can break that streak, it is Barkley, who can put the entire team on his shoulders at times. If he can do that this season, he could be a candidate. Our only beef here: These two aren't 'sleeper' candidates for MVP. Rather, they are candidates - period. Advertisement If both players play well this season, they could very well cancel each other out, but they would be very hard to ignore entirely when the MVP conversation comes up.

Eagles' Maturity Stands Out After Former Safety's Comments
Eagles' Maturity Stands Out After Former Safety's Comments originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Last season, Philadelphia Eagles safety Chauncey Gardner-Johnson was one of the older veterans on the defense. Being 27 years old isn't exactly "old" in today's NFL, but he was in comparison to the rest of Philly's defense. Advertisement Age doesn't equal maturity, though. After Philadelphia traded Gardner-Johnson to the Houston Texans this offseason, the veteran safety took the time to trash the organization for how they moved on from him. 'I feel highly disrespected, but it's a business,' Gardner-Johnson told Aaron Wilson of Houston's KPRC 2. 'Never was an All-Pro or Pro Bowl [selection]. Never. Led the league in interceptions. What more do you want?' Gardner-Johnson is an outspoken player. He wasn't the only one on the Eagles roster last year. The difference between some of the players on the team? Maturity. Despite all the comments Gardner-Johnson has made over the last few months, the Eagles locker room has been silent in response. Philadelphia's young roster has been focused on repeating as Super Bowl champions. Advertisement They don't have time to worry about what a former player is trying to say about them, their coaches or their organization.. Maybe that will change, But amid the trashing? The maturity from the Eagles young room might be another big reason why the champs are considered a favorite to repeat as Super Bowl winners. They aren't worried about sidebar stories like the one Gardner-Johnson has become. They have a goal to reach. That maturity level is something that Gardner-Johnson, should he choose to embrace it in his career, could be beneficial for him in Houston. Sometimes things need to be said. But sometimes, silence is golden..

Is Jeremiah Trotter Jr. Ready For Bigger Role on Eagles?
Is Jeremiah Trotter Jr. Ready For Bigger Role on Eagles? originally appeared on Athlon Sports. When offseason workouts began, it became quite clear that the Philadelphia Eagles had a major conundrum at linebacker. Advertisement First-Team All-Pro Zack Baun is ready for his second season with the team, but the question of who plays beside him continues to be a mystery. Last year's starter, Nakobe Dean, is still recovering from a torn patellar tendon. He suffered the injury in Philadelphia's 22-10 win in the wild card round of the playoffs. After Dean, Philadelphia drafted linebacker Jihaad Campbell with the 31st overall pick in the 2025 draft. The issue with Campbell? He is dealing with shoulder and knee injuries that will keep him out until the middle of August. That leaves 2024 late-round pick Jeremiah Trotter Jr. to take first team reps with Baun at linebacker. Advertisement Trotter is no secret in Philadelphia. The son of the former Eagles legend of the same name, Trotter was a key special-teams player in his first season with the organization last year. The fact that both father and son were able to celebrate a Super Bowl title together made the decision to draft him out of Clemson last year all the sweeter Clearly, expectations have changed now. Instead of Trotter playing solely on special teams, he is being thrown into the starting lineup until Campbell or Dean are ready to play. Can he hold his own now in that role? Trotter certainly has the pedigree to be a potential starter in the NFL. The fact that defensive coordinator Vic Fangio is confident enough in his abilities to give him some starting reps. shows that the youngster may be further long than anticipated. Advertisement Time will tell if Trotter's first-team reps will be taken away once one of the perceived stars returns from injury. It's clear that the Eagles are leaving everything on the table when it comes to who will play alongside Baun in 2025, though.
