Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles contemplated retirement this offseason, but he decided to give it at least one more season, returning to the Eagles on a one-year contract. At 36 years old, Sproles is long past the typical lifespan for an NFL running back, even if he doesn’t get much playing time in the […]

DeSean Jackson is out, but the Philadelphia Eagles wide receiving corps may not be completely devoid of veteran talent on Sunday. According to Eliot Shorr-Parks of 94 WIP, there is a “pretty good chance” that he’ll play the game, despite being questionable on the injury report. Jeffery suffered an injury during the first half of […]

The Philadelphia Eagles will be looking to get back into the win column in Week 3 against the Detroit Lions at home. Defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz knows his group will have their work cut out trying to contain quarterback Matthew Stafford. Both share quite a history during their days as a head coach/quarterback combo in […]

We’ve reached Week 3 of the NFL season, and there are some DraftKings value plays that all DFS players need to consider when constructing their rosters. This seems like a week where paying up at running back is the best strategy, especially considering the matchups for elite players like Ezekiel Elliott and Dalvin Cook. If […]

The Philadelphia Eagles haven interesting match coming up against the Detroit Lions. However, their offense will be crippled as DeSean Jackson is listed out due to his abdominal injury. Doug Pederson confirmed, per Jeff McLane, that the seasoned wideout will be missing Week 3 as he still hasn’t fully recovered from the abdominal strain he […]

If you’re a football fan of any sort, whether it’s casual, die-hard, or anywhere in the middle, you’re guilty of being an armchair NFL general manager. But there’s nothing wrong with that. Having an opinion is a central part of being a sports fan. It’s what makes following teams fun. Without the sharing of differing […]

Philadelphia Eagles wide receivers Alshon Jeffery and DeSean Jackson are both still not practicing for the team ahead of their Week 3 game against the Detroit Lions, according to Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk. It’s seeming more and more likely that duo will at least be sidelined for this week’s matchup, and the Eagles […]

Jackson suffered an abdominal strain. Meanwhile, Jeffery sustained a calf strain. Neither receiver logged […]

It’s a little weird to think that this Philadelphia Eagles team won the Super Bowl in 2017. While that team was very talented, this year’s squad has had some ups and downs, and after a Week 2 loss to the Atlanta Falcons, they are looking a lot less threatening than the team that held the […]

The Philadelphia Eagles may be without both DeSean Jackson and Alshon Jeffery for their Week 3 matchup against the Detroit Lions this Sunday, meaning that other players will have to step up. Enter rookie wide receiver JJ Arcega-Whiteside, who had an impressive preseason and may now have to carry the load this Sunday: “I’m ready,” […]

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz put forth a rather poor performance during his team’s loss to the Atlanta Falcons last Sunday, completing just 25 of his 43 passes for 231 yards, a touchdown and a couple of interceptions. Wentz was also hit pretty hard by the Falcons during the game, which has led to some […]

Jacksonville Jaguars star Jalen Ramsey has requested a trade, and one of the teams that are taking a close look is the Philadelphia Eagles according to ESPN’s Tim McManus. The Eagles have Super Bowl aspirations this year, and they could be one key piece away from locking up the title? Is Jalen Ramsey that guy? […]

Pro Football Hall of Famer Terrell Owens cemented his legacy as one of the greatest receivers to ever play the position. The theatrical wideout known as T.O. also established himself as one the game’s most notorious showmen. Whether he was signing the game ball with a sharpie after scoring a TD or appearing in a bizarre […]

It’s clear to the Jacksonville Jaguars that it’s only a matter of time before they lose Jalen Ramsey. So they decided to cash in and put him on the trade market. The Philadelphia Eagles are apparently one of the teams that are looking to make a move for the All-Pro cornerback. ESPN’s Tim McManus reported […]

DeSean Jackson was a huge part of the Week 1 win for the Philadelphia Eagles. He made a huge impact in his return to the franchise with eight catches for 154 yards and two touchdowns against the Washington Redskins. Unfortunately, his impact will be put on hold for a couple of weeks. According to a […]

If there’s anything that Week 2 of the fantasy football season taught us, it’s not to overreact to one week when it comes to player performance and waiver wire pickups. There were quality players getting dropped left and right after underperforming in Week 1, and some of those players bounced back in big ways to […]

Going into the season, the Philadelphia Eagles were pegged as one of the top teams in the NFC. They had a healthy Carson Wentz, an explosive offense overall and a seemingly improved defense. What could go wrong? Well, the Eagles have gotten off to a so-so start, going 1-1 over their first couple of games, […]

Current Miami Dolphins defensive back Minkah Fitzpatrick may not be with the AFC East franchise much longer. The Dallas Cowboys and Kansas City Chiefs certainly hope so. According to a recent report from Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports, a trade involving Fitzpatrick is imminent with at least six teams currently in the mix for […]

Cornerback Jalen Ramsey has requested a trade from the Jacksonville Jaguars. Ramsey is a 24-year-old with a first-team All-Pro and two Pro Bowl nods to his name is capable of shutting down the NFL’s best. Ramsey and the Jaguars should have no trouble finding suitors. All NFL teams should be interested in Ramsey. He’s in […]

Philadelphia Eagles third-year running back Corey Clement could miss up to two weeks due to a shoulder injury suffered in the team’s loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the 24-year-old Clement was knocked out of the bout with a shoulder injury and completed an MRI on Monday. With little known, the […]

The 29-year-old Jeffery is nursing a calf strain and, per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, could miss the next one to two games due to the […]

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor enjoyed quite the performance against the Atlanta Falcons. Unfortunately, he had a chance for an even bigger day had he not dropped an easy ball that would have likely resulted in a touchdown. Rather than securing a potential three-point lead with less than two minutes left in the game, […]

The Philadelphia Eagles are 1-1 after two games, and had it not been for a thrilling comeback win over the Washington Redskins in Week 1, they would be 0-2 and in serious danger of missing the playoffs. But maybe the Eagles are still in danger regardless of their record. Philadelphia fell to the Atlanta Falcons […]

Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Tim Jernigan will likely be sidelined for four-to-six weeks after suffering a broken foot during his team’s loss to the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday night, according to Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk. Jernigan won’t need surgery. This injury particularly stings for the Eagles, as they have already lost fellow defensive […]

Carson Wentz is the Philadelphia Eagles starting quarterback. He also just so happens to be a wizard. The Atlanta Falcons witnessed that in their “Sunday Night Football” matchup. In the fourth quarter, on third and nine, Wentz, somehow, someway, got himself out of a sack, then, as another Falcons defender was closing in one a […]

The Philadelphia Eagles were hoping to build on their win against the Washington Redskins when they faced the Atlanta Falcons. However, they had to play without DeSean Jackson and Alshon Jeffery for the remainder of the game.

The first half of “Sunday Night Football” between the Philadelphia Eagles and Atlanta Falcons didn’t feature pristine quarterback play.

Ryan’s first-half interception came via Eagles cornerback Sidney Jones with the clock dwindling to go into halftime. The Falcons […]

Everyone knew that emotions would be running high as DeSean Jackson made his return to the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 1. Early in the game, Jackson got into a scuffle with Washington Redskins cornerback Quinton Dunbar. After the play, Jackson was penalized for unnecessary roughness and now he is being fined for it. The NFL […]

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson reeled in two touchdowns Week 1, yet he’ll play second-fiddle to a man on the opposing sideline when he faces the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday: Julio Jones. Jones, an elite threat and arguably the game’s No. 1 receiver, reels in a viewership anytime he steps onto the gridiron. On […]

The Miami Dolphins are in rebuild mode and are willing to part ways with some of their key contributors for the right price. Among the players they could be listening to offers for is defensive back Minkah Fitzpatrick. The Dolphins came into this season as a team that is beginning anew under the new regime […]

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback managed to get off to a spectacular start in the 2019 NFL season. Regardless, he knows he will have his hands full against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 2.

The Atlanta Falcons didn’t look good week one against the Minnesota Vikings, but Doug Pederson still knows what kind of challenge they present for the Philadelphia Eagles.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz is good at a lot of things, but there is one place he really succeeds, sneaking the ball on third or fourth and one. In his career, Wentz is 21-for-23 on third and fourth and one, including doing it three times last Sunday against the Washington Redskins, per NBC Sports. […]

Due to the Philadelphia Eagles losing Malik Jackson for the season, they decided to bring in former Miami Dolphins defensive tackle Akeem Spence. Despite signing with the Eagles, Spence can help but “feel bad” for the current Dolphins players. Per Les Bowen in the Philadelphia Inquirer: “It just so happened, around 3 or 4, I’m taking […]

Week 1 of the 2019 NFL season is in the books, giving way to a week-long version of overreaction Monday. Take a quick look at Twitter and you’ll be convinced that the New England Patriots are without a doubt winning another Super Bowl (okay, this probably is happening), the Cleveland Browns are pretenders, John Ross […]

Nick Foles’ Jacksonville Jaguars debut did not last very long, as the quarterback suffered a broken clavicle in the first quarter of his team’s 40-26 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday. Afterward, Foles’ former teammate, Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz, reached out to Foles: “I did reach out to Nick, and I love […]

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson has made a living off of his speed. Since 2008, Jackson has scorched opposing defenses no matter his team or quarterback. In 2019, he’s doing the same. On opening weekend, Jackson recorded the third-fastest time for an NFL player. According to NFL Next Gen Stats, Jackson reached 21.4 MPH […]
