With Week 2 of Training Camp underway, the team's Public Practice is scheduled for Thursday evening at 6:30 PM. Here are ten reasons to consider purchasing tickets:

The Eagles will take the field at Lincoln Financial Field for the first time this season. Fans can see Jalen Hurts, A.J. Brown, Brandon Graham, and others as they prepare for the 2024 season. "Whether it's a Jalen dime to DeVonta Smith or Jordan Davis and Jalen Carter causing havoc, all of that and more will be on display at this year's Training Camp Public Practice."

New offseason acquisitions will also be showcased. Running back Saquon Barkley will make his debut at Lincoln Financial Field as an Eagle. Newcomers Parris Campbell and John Ross join Barkley on offense, while linebackers Devin White and Zack Baun suit up for defense after signing in free agency. Additionally, C.J. Gardner Johnson returns after re-signing with the Eagles.

Attendees will get a first look at the 2024 Draft Class. First-round pick Quinyon Mitchell will demonstrate his talent in the secondary while Jalyx Hunt brings pressure off the edge. Will Shipley will showcase his speed out of the backfield, Ainias Smith and Johnny Wilson will catch passes, and Jeremiah Trotter Jr. follows in his father's footsteps donning midnight green. Trevor Keegan and Dylan McMahon aim to protect their quarterbacks as they seek roster spots.

Special-edition Eagles Autism Foundation jerseys will be worn by players during practice. The jerseys feature energy green letters and numbers to support the foundation and will be available for auction later.

Family-friendly activities include performances by the Eagles Drumline and Cheerleaders, autographs, and games, making it an ideal event for families.

Fans can meet Eagles Legends during practice with opportunities for autographs and photos from former players such as A.J. Feeley (2001-'03, '06-08), Todd Herremans (2005-14), Hollis Thomas (1996-2005), and William Thomas (1991-99).

Select players will stay after practice concludes to sign autographs for fans in attendance.

The Eagles Pro Shop at Lincoln Financial Field will be stocked with new apparel including jerseys, hats, shirts, and more available for purchase during Public Practice.

A fan-favorite activity returns with The Yard Sale where fans can purchase signed memorabilia from former players across from Section 132. Items include signed jerseys, footballs, and other collectibles with any purchase granting a free 2024 Eagles Yearbook.

By attending Public Practice, fans support the Eagles Autism Foundation as all proceeds go towards aiding the autism community.
