Eagles DC Vic Fangio praises Patriots after joint practices
Summary

Vic Fangio, the Philadelphia Eagles defensive coordinator, expressed high praise for the New England Patriots following two joint training camp practices held last week. Fangio noted that these practices were among the most valuable days of training camp as the teams prepared for their Week 2 preseason matchup. Although the Patriots secured a 24-21 comeback victory in that game, none of the starters participated due to the demanding nature of the practices. The Patriots previously hosted the Indianapolis Colts for a practice ahead of their sessions with the Eagles.
