Eagles LB Ben VanSumeren, a dual threat?
Last week during training camp, linebacker Ben VanSumeren showcased his versatility by lining up at receiver and running some impressive routes. Despite a quarterback mishap, VanSumeren’s skills turned heads and sparked speculation about his potential role on offense moving forward.
“I played receiver growing up,” VanSumeren explained, hinting at more offensive opportunities on the horizon. His athleticism, evident in his impressive 40 time and vertical jump, could provide a new dimension to the Eagles’ game plan.
VanSumeren’s journey from undrafted rookie to special teams standout is a testament to his work ethic and potential impact on the team.
