It finally happened. A pass hit Jason Avant’s fingers, and then the grass at Lehigh. Let the record show it happened Sunday morning, during an 11-on-11 drill, on a short throw over the middle from Kevin Kolb. By the coaches’ count, it was Avant’s first drop of Eagles training camp.

By offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg’s count early last week, Avant had caught 80 passes in competitive drills (seven-on-seven or full team) without a single drop. On the play in question, the ball hit Avant’s hands but cornerback Joselio Hanson reached in to push it loose.
