What happened: Philadelphia added Kenny Moore to bolster the secondary. The plan is for Moore to split time at safety and nickel corner.

Why it matters: Philadelphia is 2-0 despite generating no takeaways through two games. A defender who can play inside and deep gives the Eagles coverage flexibility without resetting the starting lineup.

By the numbers: Philadelphia is 2-0 with zero takeaways, the fifth team to start 2-0 that way. Jalen Hurts has 5 touchdown passes through two games.

What to watch: Moore joins the secondary rotation during Week 3 preparation. Early packages will show how the staff splits his safety and nickel snaps.
