The only thing that could limit the Eagles passing game with practice squad cornerbacks playing is pressure – and with the addition of Jernigan, the Eagles should be able to do that more than acceptably.

Last season, the 26-year-old defensive tackle registered 2.5 sacks and 29 combined tackles to his stats. But his ability to pass-rush is what makes him a threat to offenses.
