Unheralded offensive lineman named Philadelphia Eagles most promising player

There's plenty of star power on the Philadelphia Eagles. 

But the team's most promising player is an unheralded fourth-year offensive lineman, according to Kristopher Knox of Bleacher Report. 

Tyler Steen named Eagles' most promising player heading into 2026 NFL season

Knox listed the most promising player on every NFL team heading into the 2026 season, and offensive lineman Tyler Steen was the pick for Philly. 

The Eagles drafted Steen out of Alabama in the third round of the 2023 NFL Draft and he became a full-time starter on the offensive line for the team last season. He projects to enter the '26 season as a starter again and he could cement himself as a staple on the line for Philly with another solid campaign. 

"Steen started all 17 games for the Eagles this past season and played 96 percent of the offensive snaps. Pro Football Focus ranked him 17th overall and 11th in pass protection among all guards in 2025," Knox wrote. 

"Entering a contract year, Steen has a great opportunity to build on last season and earn that lucrative second contract. If the rest of Philly's line can stay healthy in 2026, expect Steen to have an even more impressive campaign than he had last season."
