The Philadelphia Eagles' Super Bowl title defense will look a lot like the team that brought home the Lombardi Trophy in the first place.
But one spot, starting cornerback, will have a relatively new face. Kelee Ringo could be crucial to proceedings in Philly.
ESPN's Ben Solak named Ringo one of the 10 key names to know for the 2025 NFL season.
Ringo is a 2023 fourth-round pick who might now be favored to win the starting CB job opposite second-year star Quinyon Mitchell.
"The reigning Super Bowl champions used the draft to address immediate needs in their defense, which was left bare by free agent departures," Solak writes. "But they didn't draft a cornerback until Round 5, leaving room for Ringo, a 2023 fourth-round pick, to win the starting job opposite rookie star Quinyon Mitchell. Ringo has played fewer than 400 defensive snaps in his two seasons as a pro, but he's just turning 23 this summer -- the same age as some rookies. He has elite athletic traits to boot. If Ringo is ready for his moment, the Eagles' defense looks adequately and rapidly retooled for another postseason push."

Ringo is one of many Eagles defenders who once starred at the University of Georgia.
He made one interception as a rookie. In total, Ringo has three passes defensed in two seasons.
If he wins the starting job, he'll be in the fire early and often. Teams will avoid throwing at Mitchell and instead throw at Ringo.
How he responds to that will be key in trying to get back to the big game and potentially win it again.
So yeah, if you didn't know Ringo's name already, get used to it.
