Eagles News: Jalen Carter and Nolan Smith off to encouraging starts

Eagles training camp Day 1 observations: Nolan Smith, Jalen Carter stand out in first practice - CBS Sports
Didn’t take long for Carter or Smith to make an impact in training camp. The Eagles were only in shells on Day 1, yet Carter and Smith demonstrated their talent level on the defensive front. Smith was with the first team in red zone defense filling in for Brandon Graham (who was with the first team in 11-on-11), earning that after impressing in 11-on-11 on the second team. Going up against Jack Driscoll, Smith beat the Eagles second-team tackle on back-to-back plays (Driscoll even had a false start on one of them), and disrupted both of the offensive plays.
