The Philadelphia Eagles are currently having their voluntary Organized Team Activities (OTAs ) from May 27-28, May 30th, June 2-3, and 5th. Even though summer is here, and the Phillies are in first place in the National League East, Philadelphia Sports fans are very interested in seeing what is going on with their Super Bowl champions and the new Birds in the nest.
As people head to the beach for the 2025 summer season, so will former NFL greats traveling to Wildwood for the first annual Beach Football League (BFL) Wildwood Open. Two-time Super Bowl Champion Tully Banta-Cain will bring the BFL on June 7th to the beach in Wildwood. Starting at 11 am, open tryouts are being held for individuals and teams to compete to win $1000 cash. For more information, visit beachfootballleague.com to sign up.
Come out to Wildwood next weekend so you can meet Eagles Receiving Legend DeSean Jackson, Super Bowl Champion and former Eagles Defensive Lineman Malik Jackson, along with Miami Hurricanes Sports Hall of Famer and 2002 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year Clinton Portis, and The Locker Room with Billy Schweim will be broadcasting Live from 10 am to 12 pm on the Wildwood Beach as part of the BFL big event.
The Phillies took two out of three from the Atlanta Braves this week, even without the services of Bryce Harper for two games, who was hit by a pitch on Tuesday night. Braves pitcher Spencer Strider hit Harper on the tricep muscle, right above his surgically repaired elbow. Even though X-rays were negative, Harper's muscle contusion will keep him out day to day according to Phillies Manager Rob Thomson.
Hopefully Harper can return this weekend when the Phillies welcome the Milwaukee Brewers and Rhys Hoskins back to Citizens Bank Park.
