Sunday Afternoon Practice Recap

The Eagles wrapped up the afternoon practice with a special teams drill after a highlight-filled session with big plays from both the offense and the defense. Four players left practice early with injuries - RB Mike Bell (Hamstring), G Max Jean-Gilles (Dehydration), CB Asante Samuel (Hamstring) and C A.Q. Shipley (Ankle). Jean-Gilles was replaced at first-team left guard by Mike McGlynn. Dimitri Patterson took over at left cornerback.

Three other players - LB Stewart Bradley (Hamstring Spasm), DeSean Jackson (Lower Back Strain) and Jordan Norwood (Tweaked Hamstring) - did not take the practice field. And the Eagles have three players still on the Physically Unable to Perform list - DE Victor Abiamiri (Knee), G Todd Herremans (Foot) and C Jamaal Jackson (Knee).

Here's the recap of what happened on the practice field. For more Eagles news, follow us on Twitter @EaglesInsider

"Blitz drill ... FS Nate Allen picks off Kolb ... Gaither and Sims the first team LBs."

"Charles Scott does indeed line up as 2nd team FB."

"Scott also played some FB at LSU. That versatility could be big for his roster push."

"Duce Staley pointing out the finer details of pass protection to Scott."

"Why is Asante Samuel so good? In 7 on 7 calls he calls out the route his receiver will run before the snap."

"Jeremy Maclin nearly brings in deep ball down right sideline. Kolb threw little too far, but Maclin had step on Samuel."

"Vick threads ball into Ingram in 7 on 7 ... Nice catch in traffic despite tight coverage from Hanson and Coleman."

"Kafka floats out deep ball down right sideline for Cooper who like a vet used his hand to create a little space from CB Pender."
