Last season, the Philadelphia Eagles were the worst team in the worst division in the NFL. To no one’s surprise, their receiving corps was awful. This is what happens when a team picks J.J.

The Philadelphia Eagles had a vision of always having competent quarterbacks. Emphasis on the plural; just look at Carson Wentz and Nick Foles in the team’s Super Bowl-winning season.
