PHILADELPHIA — The Philadelphia Eagles are set to conclude organized team activities before the full mandatory minicamp begins next week. The team concluded their fifth of six OTA practices Thursday, the second of which was open to the media. 

This practice mostly conducted of 7-on-7 drills and one 11-on-11 segment with some interesting depth chart observations. Mandatory minicamp is scheduled from June 4-6. 

Here are some observations from the open practice on Thursday: 

Who wasn’t there?

This is a voluntary OTA practice, but the Eagles had strong attendance. DeVonta Smith, Lane Johnson, Darius Slay, James Bradberry, C.J. Gardner-Johnson and Josh Sweat were not present. Kelee Ringo and Jake Elliott weren’t at last week’s open practice, but were present Thursday. 

We’ll see if Bradberry is present for mandatory minicamp next week, which will be a better indication on his future.

Bradberry is still on the roster but the Eagles can designate him as a post-June 1 cut and not owe anything toward the salary cap. Bradberry’s contract would carry $4.305 million in dead cap, but the Eagles could just eat the money over two seasons if the 31-year-old isn’t in the team’s plans to start in 2024. 

Depth chart observations

The Eagles gave a 7-on-7 and 11-on-11 look in Thursday’s practice, and the depth chart for both had a few differences. 

Here was the first-team look for 11-on-11 on offense and defense:

QB Jalen Hurts, RB Saquon Barkley, WR A.J. Brown, WR Parris Campbell, WR Joseph Ngata, TE Dallas Goedert, LT Jordan Mailata, LG Landon Dickerson, C Cam Jurgens, RG Tyler Steen, RT Mekhi BectonEDGE Brandon Graham, DT Jalen Carter, DT Jordan Davis, EDGE Bryce Huff, LB Nakobe Dean, LB Zack Baun, CB Kelee Ringo, CB Isaiah…
