Nick Mullens ensures depth at the quarterback position for Philadelphia Eagles.

After a few years of Nate Sudfeld taking on the role of ‘QB3’, the Philadelphia Eagles have upgraded. 26-year-old Nick Mullens is an Eagle once again like he was during his days at Southern Miss. This time he’ll don the midnight green instead of the black and gold. Sudfeld and Mullens will trade places this upcoming season.

Sudfeld struggled in limited action, to say the least. There were flashes of potential during his preseason outings against lower-level talent but it’s safe to say the Eagles would have been in trouble if he had been asked to play significant snaps.
