Rotowire
Head coach Nick Sirianni told reporters Steen will serve as the first-team right guard during Wednesday's practice, Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia reports.

Eagles' Tyler Steen: Flies to Philly

The Eagles selected Steen in the third round of the 2023 NFL Draft, 65th overall.

Steen lacks ideal arm length for a tackle but makes up for it with size, anchor and solid technique. The Eagles have the best line in football as it is, but Steen will now have the opportunity to learn behind Lane Johnson before taking over in the future.
