Eagles’ Sproles to show up for minicamp; Fletcher Cox spotted on plane to Philadelphia

By: Brandon Apter, contributor

There have been two players that have skipped all of the Eagles voluntary workouts to this point in Fletcher Cox and Darren Sproles. Sproles will report to mini camp this week, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com.

Sproles had been on the west coast during voluntary OTA's, spending time with his family. It had been rumored that the Eagles were fielding calls for potential Sproles trade suitors, but Doug Pederson has continually expressed his desire for the veteran back to remain with the team. 

While Cox may hold out for longer in hopes of landing a new contract, he was apparently spotted on a flight to Philadelphia on Sunday night.

Please note that the above tweet isn't an official report and there's no way to even really confirm that this was indeed taken on Sunday. None the less, that sure does look like him.

The Eagles are one of seven NFL teams to open mandatory minicamp this week. Players can be fined up to $76,580 for skipping.
