Eagles debut new Sean Mannion offense at 2026 training camp
The Philadelphia Eagles opened their 2026 training camp on July 29 at the Jefferson Health Training Complex. First‑time offensive coordinator Sean Mannion introduced an under‑center system that emphasizes pre‑snap motion and misdirection, a sharp shift from the previous offensive scheme.
Quarterback Jalen Hurts threw numerous passes over the middle, while running back Saquon Barkley and rookie Tank Bigsby each posted long runs through opened holes. Defensive highlight came from safety Jalyx Hunt, who forced pressure and earned praise from reporters. Defensive tackle Jonathan Greenard was placed on the physically unable to perform list after a pec tweak. The camp’s early practices also featured a press conference with head coach Nick Sirianni and GM Howie Roseman.
The new offense drew praise on social media, with ESPN’s Tim McManus calling it “a brand‑new offense…spectacular,” and players and coaches noted the increased complexity and motion as a major theme for the coming season.
