Fangio Revitalized the Eagles' LBs | Philadelphia Eagles News

The Eagles’ linebacker unit has undergone a dramatic transformation under Vic Fangio, evolving from a neglected afterthought to a stacked, All-Pro-caliber group. After years of undervaluing the position, they now boast elite talent like Zack Baun and first-round rookie Jihaad Campbell — so much so, they had to trade Nakobe Dean to make room. Campbell is primed to start alongside Baun, but he’s not coasting: Jeremiah Trotter Jr., splitting reps with him, is proving himself as a reliable third option. Fangio’s rotating practice reps ensure everyone stays sharp, with Campbell focusing on inside linebacker and Trotter gaining valuable starter experience. This fierce competition is exactly what the coach wants — depth, readiness, and a defense poised for greatness. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
