Cooper DeJean Latest News
Racks up five tackles vs. Minnesota
DeJean (hamstring) registered five tackles (three solo) in the Eagles' 26-3 preseason loss to the Vikings on Saturday. DeJean started training camp on the active/NFI list due to a hamstring injury. He missed the first two preseason games and was limited to individual drills, but he was able to ramp up his activity leading up to Philadelphia's preseason finale. DeJean is expected to be used across multiple positions on the Eagles' defense in his rookie season.
Should suit up for finale
DeJean (hamstring) is expected to play in Saturday's preseason finale against the Vikings, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports. DeJean had his college career end last November due to a fractured fibula, then sustained a hamstring injury during offseason training, leading to a slow-building return to action for the 21-year-old. He's expected to be utilized across multiple positions on defense for the Eagles during his rookie campaign.
Progresses to individual drills
DeJean (hamstring) began participating in individual drills during Tuesday's practice session, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports. DeJean told reporters after practice Tuesday that he felt good after his drills, and he is aiming to play in the Eagles' preseason finale against the Vikings on Aug. 24, per Kubena. DeJean started training camp on the NFI list due to a hamstring strain he sustained during offseason practice, and if he were able to suit up against Minnesota, it would likely only be for one or two defensive series. The rookie second-round pick is expected to be utilized across multiple positions on the Eagles' defense, which ranked 26th in the league last season in yards allowed per game (356.1).
Starting training camp on NFI list
The Eagles placed DeJean (hamstring) on the active/non-football injury list Tuesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports. Per Fowler, DeJean sustained the hamstring injury during offseason training and is expected to miss at least three weeks. That could put DeJean on track to return for the Eagles' second preseason game against the Patriots on Aug. 15. The 2024 second-round pick out of Iowa logged seven interceptions (including three returned for touchdowns) in three collegiate seasons, and he is expected to play multiple positions on defense, per Brooks Kubena of The Athletic.
Embracing versatility
DeJean is being exposed to more than one position in the offseason, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports. Kubena further reported that Eagles pass game coordinator Christian Parker said DeJean "can handle it mentally" and might "have a home" by training camp. The 2023 All-American at Iowa played cornerback, safety and a hybrid linebacker/defensive back role during his college career.
