STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Payton shows poise as QB4, building case for developmental roster spot.

Payton, the Eagles' QB4, saw limited action with the third-team offense but made a ballsy attempt over the middle to contested Quez Watkins that was completed in 7-on-7, and on the final play of practice completed a downfield pass to Britain Covey who found the end zone after the catch. The source notes Payton doesn't look scared to pull the trigger, as can be the case with some rookie quarterbacks, and is slowly but surely building the case for the Eagles to keep him as a developmental option.
