And then Stoutland did “throw sugar all over the place” by adding this about Jurgens:
“Cam is a very smart player. He’s an intelligent player, he asks great questions in meetings, and he conceptualizes concepts very well when I teach them. … A lot of players are afraid to ask (questions) because they don’t want you to look at him like, ‘Hey, he doesn’t know what he’s doing.’ Cam doesn’t care. He’s pretty confident … not only in his knowledge, but in his ability to play.”
The Eagles most likely won’t have a main running back as they did last season with Miles Sanders, who had a career-high 1,269 yards rushing. Sanders left as a free agent, and the Eagles traded for D’Andre Swift and signed Rashaad Penny. Those two figure to get the bulk of the carries, and Swift likely has the edge because he’s an accomplished receiver out of the backfield.
