The Eagles met with media ahead of the 2016 season

Thursday was a full day for the Eagles. Practice - the fourth of preseason - was one of the team's first in full pads. The session was moved up because of weather concerns, but that didn't mean the day was over once Steve Addazio's final whistle blew.

Nope - Thursday was also Media Day: the annual mix-and-mingle event for local and regional media which allows coaches and players to talk about the team in an intimate setting.

More than 30 media attended practice and stayed for several press conferences and availablity with selected Eagles. They'll be more coverage of the team as we get closer to the season-opening kickoff on Sept. 3, but get a taste of the day through the information below.
