The Philadelphia Eagles headed into the 2023 NFL season with high hopes of capitalizing on the 2022 campaign, where quarterback Jalen Hurts turned into a legitimate superstar and led the team to the Super Bowl to take on Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs.
Although the Eagles put up a fight in the Super Bowl, the team couldn’t get the best of Andy Reid’s squad, as they turned out to be the better all-around team and won their second title with Mahomes under center.
Even though the Eagles had a strong start to the 2023 NFL season, winning 10 of their first 11 games, Philadelphia began to fall apart.
Despite an epic collapse in the second half of last season, the Eagles plan to bounce back with a vengeance, as Nick Sirianni’s squad has made some solid additions to the team, like superstar running back Saquon Barkley, formerly of the division-rival New York Giants.
The Eagles’ sights are set on making another run at a Super Bowl title, and on Sunday, the team added a bit more depth to its roster by adding wide receiver Griffin Hebert and tight end Kevin Foelsch to its practice squad, according to the team’s X account.

With Barkley now in the fold, it’ll be interesting to see if he was the missing piece to the championship puzzle for the Eagles, as he gives the team more firepower on offense.
Only time will tell how things pan out for the Eagles as they try to get back on track as one of the best teams in the NFL.
