Cooper DeJean and Quinyon Mitchell are not making contract extension talks the center of attention at Philadelphia Eagles training camp. The young defensive pair is instead keeping its focus on preparation, on-field work and the demands of camp.
The update suggests both players are trying to avoid extra distractions during an important part of the offseason calendar. With training camp underway, the emphasis appears to be on improving within the Eagles' system rather than spending energy on deal discussions.
For Philadelphia, that kind of approach can help maintain a football-first mindset as the team gets ready for the season. Contract questions often follow promising players, but this situation does not appear to be creating a major storyline inside camp right now.
As camp continues, attention will likely stay on how DeJean and Mitchell perform in practice and where they fit into the Eagles' defense. For the moment, any extension chatter is taking a back seat to training camp work.
