Eagles Training Camp Notebook: Defense brings the heat during hottest practice of the summer

Eagles training camp continues to roll on as we head further into the dog days of summer. The big story to open up the day was the team moving the start time up by an hour from 10 a.m. to 9 a.m. in order to avoid the heat on the hottest day of camp so far. Head coach Nick Sirianni, however, is a big fan of having guys practice in this kind of weather, stating that it helps the team better prepare for games in hot areas and it likened it almost to a type of team bonding.
