The Philadelphia Eagles have dealt with their fair share of injuries this season throughout the roster that includes veteran wide receiver Mike Wallace suffering a fractured fibula.

Although there hasn't been a timetable for his return placed on Wallace, there is a growing notion that he will likely be back in the fold at some point in the coming weeks of the regular season. According to Zack Rosenblatt of NJ.com, the Eagles are sticking to this at least the “plan” to bring him back into the fold.

Now, he's missed the last seven games with a fractured fibula, suffered in a Week 2 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He was placed on injured reserve.

Still, Wallace insists his season's not over. At least, that's the “plan.”

The fact that the conversation has continued to stay persistent shows that Wallace is making progress in his recovery from the injury. There is still enough time for him to get back into the fold and make an impact in these next several games while helping the team make a push toward getting back into the playoffs.

Although he didn't register a single catch through the first two games, he can still step in to be a legitimate deep-ball threat that could stretch the field. Wallace has proven that throughout his career as he has hauled in a pass of 50 or more yards in all but once in his first 10 years in the league.

It is a situation that the Eagles will continue to keep a close eye as he progresses through the stages of recovery from the injury. There isn't a rush to get him back on the field as the team is still working in former Pro Bowl wideout Golden Tate into the passing game in hopes he provides another element to the offense. These next few weeks will be telling of Wallace's status for the rest of the season.
