“The Eagles suited up nine defensive linemen on Sunday, and six played at least 40 percent of the snaps. Three others saw action from 12 to 25 percent of the time.

 

Philadelphia selected five defensive linemen within the first three rounds of the past four drafts, and each played a major role in helping to deliver the Lombardi Trophy.”
