The Philadelphia Eagles have found a promising dual threat in rookie Cooper DeJean, who made his first start on defense in a narrow victory over the Cleveland Browns. DeJean's performance included a solid defensive display and effective punt returns, averaging 12.8 yards on four attempts.
Despite a slow start to the season due to a hamstring injury, DeJean played 52 snaps against the Browns, significantly impacting the game. His versatility and speed were evident as he recorded six tackles and contributed to a crucial goal-line stand late in the game.
With guidance from veteran teammates, DeJean is gaining confidence and improving his skills. At just 21 years old, he shows great potential, and his coaches and teammates are excited about his future in the NFL.
