How the Eagles players skipping voluntary offseason workouts will impact Nick Sirianni

The Philadelphia Eagles have joined a growing list of teams that have agreed to skip voluntary offseason workouts amid uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic.

18 other teams have now expressed similar concerns about in-person onfield workouts amid health concerns.

In the statement, it says they feel it’s “unnecessary at this time for players to be volunteering to put themselves at risk for in-person workouts,” considering players are currently training on their own across the country and doing so safely.

Players won’t be required to attend team workouts until mandatory minicamp begins in June, with all OTAs and prior sessions being completely voluntary.

With head coach Nick Sirianni set to install a new offensive scheme and Jonathan Gannon doing the same on defense, we take a look at how the limited offseason will impact the new Eagles regime.
