Philadelphia Eagles hint at potential Lincoln Financial Field changes after NFL survey leaks
Lincoln Financial Field has been home to the Eagles since 2003 when the team completed its move from Veterans Stadium, but after winning the franchise's second Lombardi Trophy this past season owner Jeffrey Lurie apparently wants to give fans more in the future.
Recently, the organization sent out a survey to NFL fans discussing upgrades they might want to see at The Linc, as well as the possibility of a "brand new stadium" that could rival others like the Dallas Cowboys' AT&T Stadium and SoFi Stadium, where the Los Angeles Chargers and Los Angeles Rams play their games.
Of the options that fans received in the survey, the most interesting was whether or not Eagles supporters would entertain the idea of the team playing under a dome or canopy - similar to what the Chargers and Rams have.
Lurie and the Eagles always try to stay on top of keeping their players happy, which has resulted in several major contract extensions in recent months, however, it's always important to keep the fans happy as well.
During the most recent NFL Players Association report card that became public, Philadelphia had one of the highest average grades across all categories, including owner, training facility, food/cafeteria and more.

4 killed in shooting at building housing NFL headquarters; no clear league connection
Four people were killed, including a uniformed New York City police officer, and another was injured on Monday evening by a gunman who entered a Midtown Manhattan high-rise building that contains offices for several prominent companies, including the headquarters of the NFL. In a news conference Monday night, New York Mayor Eric Adams said that the gunman had died of an 'apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound.' Advertisement Adams identified the police officer as 36-year-old Didarul Islam, a three-year veteran of the NYPD and an immigrant from Bangladesh. The other victims' names, including another man and two women, have not been made public. The NFL offices are located on the fifth through eighth floors of the building at 345 Park Ave., between 51st and 52nd Streets. There was no indication that the gunman entered any of those floors. The league did not respond to requests for comment. Jessica Tisch, the NYPD Commissioner, said the shooter was believed to be 27-year-old Shane Devin Tamura, who has a Las Vegas address. She noted Tamura has a 'documented mental health history' and that any potential motive for the shooting remained unclear. 'We believe this to be a lone shooter and there is no active threat to the public,' she said. Tisch said multiple 911 calls came in at 6:28 p.m. ET regarding the shooter. A security camera image shared by the NYPD showed the man identified as Tamura walking toward the building's entrance with a long gun that Tisch described as an M4 rifle. Tamura, Tisch said, shot four people on the building's ground floor, including Islam, before proceeding to an elevator. He went to the offices of the real estate company Rudin Management on the 33rd floor, where he shot and killed another person. Rudin owns the high-rise building. Tisch said the shooter then shot himself in the chest. Other companies with offices in the building include Deutsche Bank, the financial firm KPMG and the investment management firm Blackstone.

Former Oregon Duck Tez Johnson has high praise for former Ohio State receiver Emeka Egbuka
Former Ohio State receiver Emeka Egbuka has been making positive impressions on teammates and coaches for a long time. Even after being drafted in the first round of this year's NFL draft by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, he's already impressing new teammates. First, it was quarterback Baker Mayfield. Now it's fellow rookie and former Oregon Duck, Tez Johnson. Johnson, whom the Bucs picked in the seventh round of this year's draft, was asked about Egbuka at a recent press conference. "He's an Ohio State guy and he beat me in the Rose Bowl," Johnson said on Sunday. "But he's a good guy. He's very twitchy for his size, and he runs really good routes and has really strong hands. The guy's smart. He's a human computer." It's more proof of what Buckeye Nation already knew and witnessed for the past four seasons. Johnson and Egbuka are rooming together during summer camp. Egbuka said his roommate snores and brings up the Rose Bowl every day. It seems like what was a small rivalry in college has developed into a respectable friendship. The two dynamic wide receivers, paired with Mike Evans and Chris Godwin, could be a formidable duo for years to come.
