With the Eagles' training camp approaching, attention turns to key players who must perform in the 2025 preseason to secure their roster spots. Linebacker Joshua Uche, acquired mid-season, had a solid 2022 with 11.5 sacks but needs to show consistent performance following a rocky start at Kansas City. Meanwhile, wide receiver Ainias Smith, a fifth-round pick last year, caught just four passes during a meaningless Week 18 game, raising concerns about his offensive role. Both players will be under close scrutiny as they fight for playing time on a team loaded with talent.
