Lane Johnson, DeVonta Smith, and More Speak During Mini Camp

[@thephillyspecialshow]

DeVonta Smith is the definition of a "team first" guy! No surprise he's a fan favorite! 🦅

[@dennis3224]

Just wait for him to have a few key moment drops and the fans will flip on him

[@Lexmurk817]

I know some of this will be in your content, gotta keep the homework strong. Excited for your giveaway.😊

[@ChuckNsenga]

@@dennis3224 He had crucial drops last year and he was still one of the fan favorites

[@dennis3224]

@@ChuckNsenga nah that’s lies, he’s had huge drops but nothing to the extent of a quez where his drops were the obvious single play to look at as to why we lost. Smith has always delivered for the eagles and his big drops were outshadowed by worse plays/playcalling mistakes. You’re lying to yourself if you think Philly fans don’t turn on him the second he has an off year w some big drops

[@DavidRussell-hu1sd]

Lane as well

[@kruksog]

Culture around this team is why I'm always a fan. I love hearing lane talk about how he was brought into the league and how he's trying to return the favor to the young guys. What a team. Prop eachother up.

[@joejones56]

D' Smith will be a legend in Philadelphia by the time his career is over.

[@Jay.j93]

Our media sucks just trying to find the negative comments to publish 😒

[@TheMattycizzle]

Was just thinking the same thing

[@demetrius6459]

Yeah man they ruined the Smitty interview and then tryna put negativity in Avonte Maddox mind like wtf

[@phillyfan3074]

What can we do as fans to change it? They say they represent us right? They don’t represent me. I don’t want the players thinking I’m like them.

[@jhonis]

who asked Avante about the "blow to his ego" !?!? terrible question. whoever asked that should recheck their own journalist ego.

[@youngcasperjett7584]

Nah that question was wild fr 🤦🏾‍♂️

[@bryansherman7766]

Couldn’t believe he said “ego” like wtf! He easily could have ask, “what were you feeling after the Eagles cut you?”

[@kruksog]

That was bo wulf, and I think he had good reason to ask that. He's trying to understand where avonte's head is. Jesus. Wild to see y'all reacting so poorly to such a true eagles reporter. He's not asking that to cause problems. He's asking because it's a wild ride avonte has been through and he wants his perspective. My God.

[@kruksog]

​@@bryansherman7766 listen to the latest phly eagles podcast. Y'all are not understanding why he asked that question. Like, you are completely missing the point. I'm not out here trying to hang my neck. If you think I'm full of shit, that's fine, tell me, kill me. That was not at all Bo's purpose in asking that question. That's all I'm here to stand up for. Bo is not after that.

[@jhonis]

@@kruksog I totally understand the idea behind the question but it was asked with a very poor choice of words. fans that follow and listen to every local media podcast know Avante's situation. they also know avante doesn't have an ego like the question insinuated. Anyway... Maddox's response just reaffirms that. Sad if you think that was a value added question.

[@gambo302]

Really hope Avonte stays healthy… our db room is stacked but he is elite when he’s healthy on the inside… just hope he can make it through camp and at worst back up the slot because we need a good backup

[@phl2150]

Lane's still our best player for sure

[@phillygrown9583]

[@joshprout1726]

Philly media just flat out sucks

[@felixradke]

Typical eagles media, trying to start ish. Asking about ego, other wr contracts and miscommunication on routes from last year.

[@batmanstwin917]

Those questions are meant to give them something to write about during the slow period. They definitely failed, the players answered correctly!!! FLY EAGLES FLY

[@felixradke]

@@batmanstwin917 it's just so dumb, bc if the player missteps then the media creates controversy in JUNE. it's pathetic and demonstrates poor journalism.

[@unspokenwords5284]

Devonta Smith is looking like a Jedi😢😂🤣 Google it!!!

[@Yeah-w5d]

Rooting for Avonte. One of the coolest guys on the team and it’s not even Eagles bias to say he’s been one of the best nickel corners in the league when healthy. Gotta be hard knowing how good you are and having constant injuries holding u back, but I like to hear that it doesn’t bother him. Same goes for his boy Dallas

[@TroyLumb]

Definitely eagles bias. I’m a diehard fan as well but avonte is average when healthy

[@Dr.Philly]

Perfect answer to the contract question!

[@frsh_cln]

Who asked that question about his contract? What a loser 🤡

[@MikeW_is_entertained]

It’s a good question because it got a great answer. Now we have absolutely no doubt how Smitty feels about. No one can speculate differently

[@frsh_cln]

@@MikeW_is_entertained I see what you mean. That needed to be said, to shut them up.

[@suzannekelly2826]

Smitty is my fav ..

[@Dr.Philly]

I’m going to keep saying this until the media team listens. You NEED a moderator!

[@brandonwagge8628]

Philly is ready for the NFL season Go Birds💚💚💚💚🦅🦅🦅🦅😊❤️

[@Susson]

DeVonta “football is always exciting” - if everyone on team feels this way ACTS this way…we will roll em’

[@Kinzokumen_JEEB]

Slim Reaper...he is so awesome...

[@rebeltvr6046]

I've watched the Eagles for a minute now, and IMO Lane Johnson is the best Eagle of all-time. What ya'll think? I mean, he's so underrated. But without him in the lineup, Eagles always look lost.

[@Soundofsilver2007]

Don’t be shocked if Saquon becomes the Eagles best weapon on O behind THAT OL.

[@ChrysHer-et8jd]

Vonta makes me proud of my decision to get his jersey for my daughter. Go Uncle Smitty!!

[@kruksog]

I've seen a couple programs say that lane has no personality and to that I say bullshit. LJ is my guy. Love hearing him talk.

[@DomKing28]

Big lane 65 goat 🐐 😌😌taking over for Kelce lane got a lot more to prove and show before he hangs it up that’s a few years away

[@Kinzokumen_JEEB]

It would have been nice for them to ask Lane about the work he has been doing with Nolan Smith...

[@neighborhoodnizz8578]

I really like Zach Baun

[@DejTribb]

lane is a living legend. so much respect for Big L !

[@CoolHandLukeDuke]

Can't even imagine DeVonta telling the media that he wants the bag. Just a different class person/teammate.

[@frsh_cln]

These reporters really look for any reason to be messy. Asking Baun all those questions about inside/outside backer.

[@jakobcounts]

Baun dodged that Nakobe question at the end 😂

[@Thaddeeus]

Lane Johnson basically said he wants Mekhi Becton playing Guard next to em

[@MikeW_is_entertained]

Smitty

[@michaeloquendo9087]

Zach baun gonna do good this year

[@PsychRick]

These guys already get paid a life changing amount of money and some people have the audacity to complain for Devonte smith and his contract? We lucky to have someone like smith he’s a team player not a selfish player just wanting to get paid…

[@halleratdakid]

It’s not selfish to ask for what the market dictates, there isn’t a person in the world that would take less money to do any job just because they make a lot more than the average person.

[@jaxsontuttle4932]

It’s crazy to me that there’s a lot of QB’s in the league that don’t ever throw balls to their receivers in the offseason a lot. I see Mahomes always getting his guys together a lot and throwing balls to them and working all offseason. I don’t know why QB’s only wanna practice in OTA’s practices during the season and camp before the season and not in the offseason it makes me wonder if they tolerate each other and treat it as a job and treat each other as acquaintances and not actual brothers and teammates and wanna improve. I never understand that.

[@nathanthefoxgamer1131]

Wentz also did it every year. Didn't work out to well for him ..

[@NG-ps9hs]

I think as long as they are in sync & they produce well on the field it’s all good.

[@rogereverett9599]

Sometimes it could be schedules don't jive together, one player could be free one week and the other could be spending time with family or maybe on vacation or they have sick relatives or small children they have to deal with. These players do have lives outside of football and as fans we should be able to understand that.

[@TroyLumb]

Same reason you don’t spend your off days with coworkers

[@kingcooper2346]

[@Kinzokumen_JEEB]

I hope Avonte can stay healthy all season...he is super productive and i hope he balls out so we can re-sign him again next off-season...

[@bjfuller1252]

Bruh these reporters suck man they ask dumb questions. They went to school for 4 years to ask questions a 5th grader would, and for the reporter who asked him about his money and everyone money is a weirdo.

[@b_green94]

Devonta is too smooth lmao

Agreed!

[@ghostly_remains]

Bryce Huff just seems like he doesn't want to be here.

[@rogereverett9599]

Maybe he understands the way the media will try and trip you up and he just doesn't want to be part of that messy madness.

[@TroyLumb]

This is why players don’t want to speak to the media. People will find anything negative to complain about. Everybody doesn’t have a bubbly personality.
