Cooper DeJean made his preseason debut after recovering from a hamstring injury, showcasing his speed and physicality. He lined up at nickel and also returned a punt, expressing enthusiasm for his first NFL experience. Named the best defensive back and return specialist in the Big Ten last year at Iowa, DeJean was drafted with the 40th overall pick, and the Eagles have high hopes for his potential in the league. While he had some notable plays, including a penalty that negated an interception, Sirianni pointed out that there's room for improvement.
