The Eagles announced dates and times for their preseason schedule:
Friday, Aug. 8 at the Bears (8 p.m.)
Friday, Aug. 15 at the Patriots (7:30 p.m.)
Thursday, Aug. 21 vs. the Steelers (7:30 p.m.)
Thursday, Aug. 28 vs. the Jets (7 p.m.)
As Zach Berman pointed out, that means training camp can start on July 24, although no exact date for that has been announced.
The first two games – New England and Chicago – are on the road. The Eagles then return home for a pair of matchups at the Linc.
If you’re wondering about the regular season schedule, Peter King of The MMQB has Tweeted that it sounds like it’ll be announced later this month (between April 22 and April 30).
