Training Camp Preview: Linebacker

1. What Will Jordan Hicks Do For An Encore?

Jordan Hicks missed the final eight games of his rookie season due to a torn pectoral tendon injury he incurred in the overtime win over Dallas. However, he still managed to finish tied for fifth in the league among rookies with seven impact plays (sacks, forced fumbles, interceptions and fumble recoveries combined).

Hicks was expected to take his time adjusting to the NFL with DeMeco Ryans, Mychal Kendricks and Kiko Alonso ahead of him on the depth chart. But the third-round pick was thrown into the fire and instantly became an impact player for the Eagles.
