unCovering: Training camp, Week 2

C.J. Gardner-Johnson is back with the Philadelphia Eagles, and has brought the big chip on his shoulder with him. That much was clear during his unfiltered first press conference of training camp. What makes the veteran safety tick? How did his second stint with the Eagles come together? Could he be injury prone? The Philadelphia Inquirer’s Jeff McLane examines Gardner-Johnson’s place on the Eagles' roster, highlights DeVonta Smith’s stellar camp, and delivers a preseason stock report. 

Plus, Jeff goes one-on-one with starting tackle Jordan Mailata, who discusses everything from songs he'd never try to sing to how he’s moving on after Jason Kelce’s retirement.
