Daily News | ‘All eyes are on me’: Eagles rookie Jordan Davis is a bulldozer in his training camp reps — and a sponge
When Jordan Davis heard offensive line coach Jeff Stoutland’s whistle blow, that cued the 6-foot-6, 336-pound defensive tackle to steamroll his opposition in one-on-ones that occurred during Monday’s training camp practice.
“The one-on-ones are like an isolated rep,” Davis said. “It’s like the game and a situation, the offensive lineman is going to be locked up, so you have to work a move. My primary move is bull rush, so you’ve just got to work it. It’s just a good way to see the line’s strengths and weaknesses.”He continued: “My takeaway, you can always get better. They want me to work bull rush, but I’m trying to add a little bit to my bag and everything.
After he was selected with the No. 13 pick, Davis arrived to Philadelphia, and he was instructed by the training staff to slim down some. The Eagles provided him with a workout plan that emphasized higher reps and intensity. The results produced a slimmed-down Davis, who is listed officially at 336 pounds. Davis says the team hopes to keep his playing weight between 330-340 pounds.
At the conclusion of Monday’s practice, Davis put in additional work under the guidance of veteran center Jason Kelce. The two players spent more than 20 minutes chatting and lining up together individually in an attempt to get Davis fully up to speed.
