Eagles mini-camp notes

With new RT Stacy Andrews still recovering from ACL surgery, his brother played there at Friday’s practice and the move is probably permanent.

“I’m going to give Shawn an opportunity at the right tackle spot,” coach Andy Reid said. “I know Stacy can go inside and compete with Nick [Cole].” The Stacy Andrews signing will haunt this team. He wasn't an upper echelon player before the injury and people acted like he was. With his contract, Cole won't beat him out but he will probably out play him in camp.?

The Eagles have opted not to distribute the jersey numbers worn by Brian Dawkins (20), Tra Thomas (72), and Jon Runyan (69).

Trainer Rick Burkholder briefed the players on how to avoid swine flu. (Was your hands.)

In case you were scratching your head over the Jeremy Maclin pick, WR Kevin Curtis underwent a second procedure on his groin on April 15.

WR Reggie Brown is playing coy on whether he has asked for a traded.

LG Todd Herremans is recovering from a knee cleanup, and reserve OG Max Jean-Gilles is recovering from ankle surgery.

Former S Brian Dawkins’ “two-stall” locker is now shared by Ellis Hobbs and Rashad Baker. Baker will not make this team.
