EDTShareTweetShareShareHowie Roseman discusses Eagles’ plan to sign Carson Wentz to an extension, impact of offseason additions, and much moreBill Streicher-USA TODAY SportsHowie Roseman appeared on SportsRadio 94WIP’s Morning Show with Angelo Cataldi on Tuesday morning. The Eagles’ EVP of football operations touched on a number of topics, including some guy named Carson Wentz. Here’s a look at everything he had to say Reggie White Jersey , along with some very important thoughts of my own.CARSON WENTZ’S FUTURENothing ground-breaking here. Roseman, Jeffrey Lurie, and Doug Pederson have all publicly stated the plan is to sign Wentz to a long-term contract extension. It’s a matter of “when” and not “if” for this team. The Eagles would probably love to get it done sooner than later. Wentz might be the one who is hesitant since his value isn’t at his highest after two straight injured seasons. I still feel like we could see a deal done before the season starts. SIGNING MALIK JACKSONThe Eagles were trotting out the likes of Haloti Ngata, Bruce Hector, and “T.Y. McGill” next to Fletcher Cox at times last season. Adding Jackson, who can rush the passer Josh Sweat Jerseys Stitched , is a significant upgrade. CHRIS LONG AND MORE DEFENSIVE LINE TALKAdding Jackson alone was a big deal. Getting Jernigan back — assuming he’s healthy — is even better. Is there a team with a better trio of defensive tackles than Cox, Jackson, and Jernigan? It feels like Long isn’t going to be back. Hopefully he is. I’m not optimistic.Ostman is definitely a guy to watch this summer. He drew a ton of praise from the coaching staff last year for his efforts on the practice squad. Ostman filled the old Steven Means role of preparing the offensive line for games each week by going all out in practice. Ostman actually led the NCAA in sacks prior to the Eagles signing him as an undrafted free agent last year. It’d be great if he can prove to be more than a long shot.It sounds like Roseman isn’t done adding at defensive end with that “it’s a position where we’re going to continue to look and continue to strengthen” line. Go get Ezekiel Ansah, Howard.DOES HOWIE HAVE A BIAS?For better or worse, this Eagles regime is very big on familiarity. They’ve talked about their “cohabitation matrix” before. I don’t think the Eagles retained BLG and brought Jackson and Curry back just because Roseman had a role in drafting them. These players weren’t luxury additions; they filled significant needs. DESEAN JACKSON’S RETURNThe Eagles will hope Jackson can be just as productive against other teams as he was against them in recent years. It’ll be great to see this offense have an elite deep threat once again.WHY THE EAGLES DRAFTED ANDRE DILLARDDillard has the potential to be an amazing pick for Philly. If he can be as great as advertised, the Eagles can “set it and forget it” at one of their most important positions for the next decade or so.SIGNING ZACH BROWNBrown has never been on an NFL team that’s finished with a winning record. Take a look:2012: 6-102013: 7-92014: 2-142015: 3-132016: 7-92017: 7-92018: 7-9I’m sure he wouldn’t mind breaking that trend this season.EAGLES AUTISM CHALLENGEThe Eagles raised more than $2.5 million for autism research last year. You can CLICK HERE to help support the cause this year. The Philadelphia Eagles released their second official injury report on Thursday in advance of their Week 7 game against the Carolina Panthers.As expected Youth Rasul Douglas Jerseys , Carson Wentz returned as a full participant after being limited on Wednesday. You can relax now, you worry-warts. Jason Peters and Derek Barnett were also upgraded from limited to full. That certainly bodes well for their playing chances on Sunday.Lane Johnson was upgraded to being a limited participant after not practicing at all yesterday. The Eagles are managing his workload to ensure he’ll be ready to start on Sunday.Six of the seven players who didn’t practice on Wednesday also didn’t practice on Thursday: running back Darren Sproles, cornerback Sidney Jones, cornerback Rasul Douglas, safety Corey Graham, linebacker Nathan Gerry Youth Mack Hollins Jerseys , and linebacker D.J. Alexander. All of those players seem likely to be out on Sunday, except for Douglas. The second-year defensive back recently posted on Instagram that his grandmother passed away (RIP) so it seems like he’s been missing practice for family reasons. Haloti Ngata was still limited in practice as he deals with a calf issue. If he can’t play, the Eagles will be down to just Fletcher Cox and Treyvon Hester when it comes to full-time defensive tackles on the 53-man roster. Jalen Mills is a new addition to the injury report. After being full go on Wednesday, he was limited on Thursday due to a hamstring issue. Hopefully it’s not serious because the Eagles are already thin in the secondary. It’ll be interesting to see what his status is after Friday’s practice.
