Rookie cornerback Jalen Mills is among a number of Eagles players set to report for training camp today. When he arrives at the NovaCare Complex, people will notice he looks a little different than he looked before leaving Philadelphia in June.
Thanks @PHIConnection for bringing @Mills_Island. If he's 1/2 as good on the field as he is off, he's a HoF'er pic.twitter.com/bUhCrs7sNc

The Eagles haven't had a player rock the green hair like this since Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie did something a little similar back in 2012. Remember this?
Unlike DRC's "mohawk," which he eventually died more of a midnight green, Mills has the whole top of his hair covered.
The 22-year-old Mills impressed reporters (myself included) with his performance during spring practices. The seventh round pick enters training camp with an opportunity to earn playing time at an unsettled cornerback position. At the very least, Mills will be hard to miss whenever he's not wearing his helmet.
