Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Mychal Kendricks can become the best in the league, according to teammate DeMarco Ryans.

The 24-year-old joined the Eagles in 2012 and has made 201 tackles so far and, although Ryans warns him that he still has to improve, he thinks that he could become a star.

He told CSN: "He still has a ways to go, he can still get much better. He knows that. The sky is the limit for Mychal, but I think before it's said and done, he could be the best inside linebacker in this league."

Kendricks made 12 appearances last season, but the Eagles missed the playoffs.
