The Eagles have multiple holes that need to be addressed on their roster, but linebacker is not one of them.

Jordan Hicks settled in as the Eagles middle linebacker this season and has been one of the most impactful players for the defense. Hicks finished second on the team in tackles and led the team in interceptions with five.

There has been some thought that Hicks may move to outside linebacker next season for the Eagles, especially if they part ways with Mychal Kendricks. Hicks just wants to play football, regardless of where he lines up.

“Honestly, I’ll play wherever they tell me to play,” Hicks said at his locker after the game. “I actually played WILL [weakside linebacker] in base this game because of Mike [Mychal Kendricks] being out. I’ve played all positions in every type of defense, so I understand it all. Wherever they need me to be, I will be there. I was still able to call the plays and kind of run the show at WILL.”

His two-interception performance against the Cowboys showed how Hicks can have an impact. The Eagles use Hicks to cover backs out of the backfield as well as tight ends running crossing routes.

Hicks’ second interception against the Cowboys came when he undercut a Mark Sanchez throw to a tight end. The second-year player has the skill set to be a playmaker in Philadelphia for years to come.

A move to outside linebacker may be in play, but Hicks is approaching the offseason with the goal to pack on more weight and strength. Getting bigger and stronger is an indication that he intends to remain at middle linebacker.

“My next goal is to get a little bit bigger and stronger,” Hicks said. “My pec [pectoral muscle injury] set me back a bit, but moving forward I have a great opportunity to do that and be more physical against the run.”
