PHILADELPHIA (AP) -The Philadelphia Eagles have ended their final pre-training camp workout with Pro Bowl cornerback Asante Samuel at a funeral, Pro Bowl wide receiver DeSean Jackson attending to personal business, and Donovan McNabb in Washington.
Samuel and Jackson are expected to be present when the team opens training camp July 29 at Lehigh University. McNabb will not.
The Eagles are moving on with Kevin Kolb as the new team leader and one of the youngest offenses in the league.
Eagles coach Andy Reid says Kolb has had a terrific teacher in McNabb, but now is the time for him to put his stamp on this Eagles team.
The coach says Kolb has shown a good command of the huddle and that the players respect him.
