Hey guess what?

There’s football this week, like real actual football against another team.

The Eagles and Steelers meet on Thursday night in preseason action at Lincoln Financial Field, which kicks off at 7:00 p.m. on NBC 10.

But until then we’ve got a few more days of training camp.

Here’s what happened today at a light 10-10-10 session, per the assembled media at NovaCare:

Offensive coordinator Mike Groh spoke to the media after training:

  • deferred questions on Zach Ertz to Doug Pederson
  • too early to evaluate RB Josh Adams, will have more time to do that this week
  • “I wouldn’t single out” any particular player in a backup offensive line position
  • On Isaac Seumalo playing center: “I think we have to cross-train all of our guys up front,” says part of his value is being able to play different positions
  • Donnel Pumphrey has done a good job in camp, “put himself in a good position to be competitive for a roster spot”

Jim Schwartz also spoke to the media. I believe he was supposed to speak last night but got bumped for Jeffrey Lurie, who talked to reporters about the extensions given to Doug Pederson and Howie Roseman. If that audio/video/whatever appears, I’ll throw it up here.

Seemed like a light day after last night’s public practice at the Linc.
