When the Eagles open training camp, rookie cornerback Cooper DeJean won’t be practicing.
Via Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com, the second-round draft pick will land on the non-football injury list. He suffered a hamstring injury while working out on his own.
Per the report, the injury is unrelated to a fractured fibula that happened in November and required surgery. He healed in time to run a 4.43-second 40-yard dash at the Scouting Combine.
The Eagles traded up to get DeJean with the 40th overall pick. During the Eagles’ offseason program, DeJean played outside and slot corner.
