PHILADELPHIA, PA — Jake Elliott has always been reliable. Ice in his veins. Clutch when it counts. But this summer, the Eagles’ star kicker is turning heads for a very different reason — and it has nothing to do with field goals.
Sources close to the team say Elliott has been spotted staying late after practices, running drills not typical for a kicker. From agility ladders to footwork coordination with receivers, it’s clear: he’s building something. But what?
One coach hinted, “Jake’s always had more in his tank than people realize. Let’s just say he’s not satisfied being just a kicker.”
Is Elliott eyeing a hybrid role? Trick-play packages? Or is this just a mental edge for another Pro Bowl season?
Whatever the reason, Jake Elliott isn’t just preparing for kicks — he’s preparing for something bigger.
And Philly? They’re watching very closely.
