For the first time in his career, Eagles offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo will be calling plays Thursday night, when the Birds host the Cincinnati Bengals in their preseason opener.

Wide receiver A.J. Brown has been sidelined with a hamstring injury since Friday, while linebacker Zack Baun has been dealing with a back contusion since the beginning of camp. According to reports, there's no long-term concern with either player, and the Eagles are keeping them out for precautionary reasons.
