Philadelphia Eagles’ rookies handling new exposure to unique locker room

Two heavy swinging doors guard the entrance, an Eagles logo emblazoned across them from wall to wall. No space is untouched by green and silver. Staffers are stationed at desks on either side, and while they’re all nutritionist or trainers, they seem rather sentry-like in their uniformity and sideways glances: you’re the only one in sight not wearing any Eagles gear. Across the hall, a weight room sprawls across the building, glass windows running ceiling to floor to give onlookers an unimpeded view of where the work gets done. And from here to there, players lumber across the divide, encased in a shield generated by the Beats over their ears, their personalized smoothie dangling from their lips, and their hard-set eyes.
