Tight Ends

  • Zach Ertz
  • Dallas Goedert
  • Richard Rodgers
  • Will Tye

Zach Ertz has established himself as one of, if not the, best tight ends in all of football. Goedert showed as a rookie last season that he is an excellent second option at the position. Rodgers and Tye provide very good depth while also contributing on Special Teams.

Offensive Line

  • Jason Peters
  • Isaac Seumalo
  • Jason Kelce
  • Brandon Brooks
  • Lane Johnson
  • Andre Dillard
  • Stefen Wisniewski
  • Vaitai Halapoulivaati
  • Jordan Mailata

The Eagles have one of the best offensive lines in the NFL as Peters, Kelce, Brooks, and Johnson are among the very best at their respective positions. Seumalo, the other starter, is very solid in his own right. Dillard is a first-round rookie who has looked every bit of the left tackle of the future this preseason. Wisniewski and Halapoulivaati provide very good and versatile depth at guard and tackle, respectively. Jordan Mailata is a former rugby player who is still learning the game of football but has shown excellent potential based on his size and athleticism.
