Les Bowen: Philadelphia Eagles Talk w/EJ Smith | Bowen On The Birds | A2D Radio

Philadelphia Inquirer’s Philadelphia Eagles beat writer EJ Smith joins Les Bowen on today’s episode of “Bowen On The Birds.” Les and EJ used to work together on the Inquirer Eagles beat. They will discuss where the team stands after OTAs and Les’s contention that this year’s team is the best-positioned team to repeat as NFC East champion since the 03-04 Eagles, who were the last to do it. Later in the show, we also look to get EJ’s thoughts about whether the close, near-life-long relationship between Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts and new offensive coordinator Brian Johnson ought to smooth over any issues arising from the OC change from Shane Steichen to Johnson. Hurts seemed to indicate last week that for him, the return of center Jason Kelce for at least one more season was the offseason’s biggest development. Quez Watkins is a name to watch during the rest of this off-season. After a rough 2022 from the former sixth-round pick, the Eagles signed Olamide Zaccheaus to compete with Watkins. Will Watkins make the final cut come Week 1? That, too, is something to ponder.
