The Eagles addressed the linebacker position in a big way, agreeing to deals with Myles Jack and Zach Cunningham.
Two down hill tacklers with different skill sets, Jack and Cunningham should provide versatility and a run-stopping discipline to an already talented Philadelphia front-seven.
Both players are in the building and have chosen uniform numbers ahead of the only open training camp practice of the summer.

Takeaways
Both players are upgrades over Davion Taylor and with Nakobe Dean firmly entrenched, Nicholas Morrow could be on the hot seat after losing snaps to Christian Elliss during the first two weeks.
Players like Shaun Bradley and rookie Ben VanSumeren could also be impacted.
