As the Philadelphia Eagles prepare for the 2026 season, excitement is building among fans and players alike. Just days before the NFL Draft on April 13, the team is making headlines not only for its draft picks but also for a slight change to its uniforms.
In 2026, the Eagles will introduce a new look, adding a black outline to the updated font of their uniforms. This change follows a transition in 2024 when the team moved from a classic, arched font to a sleeker design. The old logo evoked nostalgia among Eagles fans who grew up watching Donovan McNabb lead Philadelphia to four straight NFC Championship Games.
As the draft approaches, several players are projected to be selected by the Eagles. Caleb Lomu is expected to be a first-round pick, coming in at No. 23 overall. Analysts note that while Lomu is raw and still needs polish, he has plenty of time to develop, not turning 22 until December.
In the second round, Antonio Williams is projected to be selected at No. 54 overall. Williams has made a name for himself, being recognized as a second-team All-American in 2024 and earning first-team All-SEC honors last season.
Other notable prospects include Eli Stowers, expected to be chosen in the third round at No. 68, and Markell Bell, also projected for the third round at No. 98. The Eagles are looking to bolster their roster with these promising talents.
In the fourth round, LT Overton and Tacario Davis are projected to be selected at No. 114 and No. 137, respectively. Davis, in particular, has the potential to develop behind established players as the Eagles assess their long-term strategy at cornerback.
Michael Taaffe and Jeff Caldwell are expected to be picked in the fifth round at No. 153 and No. 178, while Kendal Daniels rounds out the projections as a sixth-round pick at No. 197. Each of these players brings unique skills that could contribute to the Eagles’ future success.
Currently, the Eagles’ tight end room consists of Dallas Goedert, Grant Calcaterra, and new signing Johnny Mundt, indicating a focus on strengthening their offensive lineup.
As the draft date approaches, the Eagles’ community is buzzing with anticipation. The combination of fresh talent and a revamped uniform design signifies a new chapter for the team, one that fans hope will lead to greater achievements on the field.
