The Eagles finished their first day of practice and the best news that could come out of it was there were no injuries -- or at least none that we know about. Andy Reid addresses the media tomorrow, and he'll reveal any injuries at the beginning of the news conference.
Here are some superlatives from Saturday:
Best play: In the first practice, linebacker Akeem Jordan intercepted a deflected Kevin Kolb pass. The pass was deflected by linebacker Stewart Bradley.
Jordan's take: "It was breaking on the ball, and my man Stewart made a good play knocking it in the air. It was just a little pop-up and it was just hustle to make the play happen."
Bradley's take: "I saw Sampy break on it, so I broke on it. ...He slipped and kind of took my knees on it, but I tipped it."
Best quote: “At 75 percent, I personally feel I can be one of the best quarterbacks in the league.” -- Donovan McNabb
He's obviously confident. Time will tell whether it's warranted.
Best save: Kevin Kolb said he's been to training camp a few times before. When he was asked about the other teams, Kolb said, "I don't want to say."
The likely answer for the Texas native is the Dallas Cowboys. Smart he didn't say.
Attendance: 2,811
Those fans must be dedicated. The first three days of training camp are uneventful with few players and no contact. Many of the players here early likely won't make the final roster.
Tomorrow's schedule: 8:45 a.m., 3:30 p.m.
