2 Eagles’ land on PFF’s Preseason Week 1 Team of the Week

The Philadelphia Eagles got solid contributions from two young defensive linemen looking to crack the rotation n last Thursday’s preseason loss to the Titans. Daeshon Hall and Treyvon Hester both made their presence known in facets of the ball game and those efforts landed the Eagles duo on the Pro Football Focus preseason week 1 team of the week.

EDGE DAESHON HALL, PHILADELPHIA EAGLES
90.9 Overall Grade, 42 Defensive Snaps

The Eagles already have the best pass-rush in the NFL according to our grades, and Daeshon Hall showed the potential to add even more depth to that this week. From 19 pass-rushing snaps, Hall registered a sack, three hits, a hurry and forced a fumble. He also registered four tackles, all resulting in a defensive stop.

ST TREYVON HESTER, PHILADELPHIA EAGLES
94.0 Overall Grade

Hester only saw three special teams snaps this week, all on the field goal/extra point block team, but he came away with a blocked extra point, and that’s good enough for us.

Hall looks to finally be coming into his own after spending all of last season as a reserve for the Eagles. Prior to that, he was cut by the Panthers after being selected in the third round of the 2017 NFL Draft.
