Eagles training camp: Rookie pass rusher has gotten a shout-out from Nick Sirianni while learning on the job
Third-rounder earned a mention from the Eagles coach
By Jeff Kerr • 3 min readPHILADELPHIA -- Jalyx Hunt was a name the common NFL fan probably didn't recognize heading into the NFL Draft. A riser up draft boards, Hunt becoming the 94th overall pick was a surprise to many.
Not to the Philadelphia Eagles, who saw how the Houston Christian product was growing into his body. A physical specimen at 6-4, 252 pounds, Hunt was a former safety at Cornell before a growth spurt led to him becoming a pass rusher. The Eagles liked Hunt's athleticism and size as a pass rusher, willing to develop him in Vic Fangio's scheme in a redshirt rookie campaign.
Could Hunt break the mold and find his way into the field for meaningful snaps? Didn't hurt Hunt got a shout-out from Nick Sirianni on the fourth day of Eagles training camp.
"We're looking for guys to play with great detail, great toughness," Sirianni said. "I've seen the toughness really show up. I'll single out a couple of the defensive ends where I've really seen that toughness really show up, that physical toughness, that relentless effort. [OLB] Patrick Johnson, [OLB] Nolan Smith, [OLB] Jalyx Hunt. I've really seen them hustling to the football, just the relentless effort and the toughness really shows up with those three guys and been excited."
