PHILADELPHIA — Unimpressive and unspectacular are the two best descriptions for how the Eagles played against the Cleveland Browns in their second joint practice on Thursday.
Let’s start with the Eagles’ offense. They were without right tackle Lane Johnson (rest), wide receiver A.J. Brown (hamstring), left guard Landon Dickerson (knee) and running back Saquon Barkley (rest) in the team period, leaving them at a disadvantage.
Things got ugly on the first snap when Browns edge rusher Alex Wright chased Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts out of the pocket and forced an errant throw to tight end Dallas Goedert .
The passing game is disjointed without Brown. Philadelphia’s offensive line struggled against Cleveland’s strong defensive line, led by edge rusher Myles Garrett. Ma
