Eagles linebacker Nakobe Dean squares off with Tennessee's Aaron Brewer during the fourth quarter Sunday at Lincoln Financial Field.Eagles rookie Nakobe Dean received valuable reps during the team’s Week 13 victory over the Tennessee Titans.
“We thought he played well,” coach Nick Sirianni said of Dean. “I think that started in his special-teams reps. He had that hit at the beginning of the second half that really established the physicality that we wanted to play with. That [sent the message] we were coming out again in the second half to play physical, and Nakobe really started things off.”
“It was good to finally get out there and get some defensive reps,” Dean said. “I’m always attentive on the sideline, always ready to go. When [White] went down, it was just me being ready like I have been all season.” Before Sunday, Dean had appeared in just four defensive snaps through the first 11 games with White and T.J. Edwards ahead of him on the depth chart. It could be argued that the Eagles have lacked this type of quality play from the linebacker position for a majority of the last decade.
