Everyone knows these Phillies will be judged on October alone. But it was 76 degrees on Opening Day, and for a few hours, everyone could forget about a long winter. Stories from the first nine innings of this season: nytimes.com/athletic/71506…

What are the Eagles' future stadium plans? Get ready: This will be one of the biggest stories surrounding the franchise in the next 12-18 months. More here in @TheAthletic: nytimes.com/athletic/71442…

New Eagles jersey numbers: Hollywood Brown: 0 Riq Woolen: 2 Tank Bigsby: 8 Elijah Moore: 13 Andy Dalton: 14 A.K. Ebiketie: 17 Marcus Epps: 29 Jonathan Jones: 32 Carson Steele: 34 Dameon Pierce: 39 Jose Ramirez: 43 J.T. Gray: 48 John Ojukwu: 67 Johnny Mundt: 83 Stone Smartt: 87

Happy Opening Day — Phillies fans are lucky to have @MattGelb and @charlottevarnes chronicling the team for @TheAthletic. The best coverage of the club anywhere.

The Eagles' stadium lease runs through 2032. That might seem a long time until you consider how long it takes to approve/plan/construct — whether it's a rebuild or a renovation. A summer survey was just the start. More here: nytimes.com/athletic/71442…

@garciaeagles215 @TheAthletic Thank you for reading!

@ZBerm @TheAthletic Great read as usual Zach

This is a key player to watch for the Eagles...

🍿

He ran a 4.25 and vertical jumped 47 inches—and that’s only part of what made a frigid day in 1998 in Huntington, WV so mind blowing. The oral history of Randy Moss’ Pro Day, a show like the NFL had never seen before or since. Free story: nytimes.com/athletic/71405…

Gerry McNamara is back. I compiled the top stories on McNamara by @DOsports, from overrated questions to his coaching move. Check out these stories from alums @chicoharlan, @ccarlsononSU, @ZBerm, @MatthewGut21, @mattschneidman, @ConorOrr and plenty more great writers. ⤵️

Eagles re-sign OT Fred Johnson, add WR Elijah Moore: Sources nytimes.com/athletic/71156… via @NYTimes

My view: I'd look at the Elijah Moore signing as independent of A.J. Brown. He has fans in the building and was a big-time player coming out of Ole Miss. I'd view it as adding a WR who turns 26 this week and averaged 60 catches per season in 2023-2024.

Elijah Moore has a close relationship with A.J. Brown

The Eagles are signing WR Elijah Moore to a one-year deal, source confirms (@RapSheet on it).

Eagles re-sign offensive tackle Fred Johnson on 1-year deal: Source nytimes.com/athletic/71156…

Johnson was ranked No.67 in The Athletic’s Top 150 free agents and entered free agency as the fifth-rated offensive tackle. He’s been valuable as a swing tackle in Philly. Johnson turns 29 in June and had been seeking a full-time starting role after playing the past three seasons in Philadelphia. There’s a new O-line coach in Philly, but he’s still one of the top veterans remaining on the market. He started eight games for the Eagles in 2025 and played 59 percent of the offensive snaps.

The Eagles are re-signing Fred Johnson, per league source. (@TomPelissero reported it.)

One of my favorite stories I've ever written was a 2016 oral history 10 years after Gerry McNamara's historic 2006 Big East tournament. I even quoted @ZBerm in there since he was the @dailyorange beat writer at the time. Cool to see Gerry in charge now: dailyorange.com/2016/03/magic-…
