He also identifies depth-chart roles for Johnny Mundt, Tank Bigsby and A.J. Epenesa. **Claimed:** Sep 17, 2026 **Pundit:** Jeff Kerr — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/pundits/jeff-kerr **Outlet:** Sports Illustrated — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/outlets/sports-illustrated **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.si.com/nfl/eagles/onsi/7-eagles-that-need-to-see-significantly-more-snaps-in-week-2-at-titans-01m2qsnvx016 4 checkable claims — 3 depth chart calls and 1 availability call — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet.
