Philadelphia Eagles news, rumors and injuriesEagles | Nelson Agholor making an impact Thu, 22 Jun 2017 20:38:07 -0700 Philadelphia Eagles WR Nelson Agholor has been a star during spring practices, according to receivers coach Mike Groh. "He had a really productive spring," Groh said. "He attacked the spring. He's shown up and made an impact at virtually every practice. Really excited about where he's at right now." Comment () | Share: Eagles | Carson Wentz finishes minicamp strong Sat, 17 Jun 2017 17:22:00 -0700 Philadelphia Eagles QB Carson Wentz "appeared to hit his stride" during the team's three-day minicamp, throwing crisper and more accurate passes than he did at the beginning. "It's coming. I would say that obviously he's been working extremely hard at everything we've done. He's really understanding our offense and our scheme … making good choices and decisions with the ball. He's been sharp. It's exciting to watch him," head coach Doug Pederson said. Fantasy Tip: The reports on Wentz and his improved mechanics have been positive thus far, although he was probably a sure bet anyway to build on a promising rookie year following the additions of Alshon Jeffery and Torrey Smith at receiver. Last year's No. 2 overall pick should be solid QB2 in fantasy most weeks who should occasionally flirt with QB1 numbers in good matchups. Comment () | Share: Eagles | Shelton Gibson continues to struggle Thu, 15 Jun 2017 18:52:04 -0700 Philadelphia Eagles WR Shelton Gibson has struggled with dropping passes throughout spring practices, and he has dropped passes during individual drills with no defenders guarding him. Comment () | Share: Eagles | Wendell Smallwood falling out of favor? Thu, 15 Jun 2017 18:47:08 -0700 Philadelphia Eagles RB Wendell Smallwood has seen noticeably fewer reps than RB Donnel Pumphrey during practice, according to Jimmy Kempski of PhillyVoice.com Fantasy Tip: The addition of LeGarrette Blount and the emergence of Pumphrey has torpedoed Smallwood's once promising fantasy stock. At this point, Pumphrey looks like the back to invest in for keeper formats. He could eventually replace Darren Sproles as the third-down back. Comment () | Share: Eagles | Jordan Matthews expects to be at camp Thu, 15 Jun 2017 14:21:41 -0700 Philadelphia Eagles WR Jordan Matthews (knee) expects to be ready for training camp despite dealing with knee tendinitis. Fantasy Tip: Matthews will man the slot again this year with newly acquired teammates Alshon Jeffery and Torrey Smith playing on the outside. With the added company, Matthews' stock takes a hit and places him in the WR3 to WR4 conversation.

Comment () | Share: Eagles | Donnel Pumphrey working with ones Tue, 13 Jun 2017 07:56:17 -0700 Philadelphia Eagles RB Donnel Pumphrey continues to work with the first-team offense in camp, and the team is preparing him for a role in the offense. Fantasy Tip: He'll have to usurp Darren Sproles to have a significant impact in fantasy, and that's not out of the question. He has some RB5 value in PPR leagues right now. Comment () | Share: Eagles | Alshon Jeffery finding a rhythm Sun, 11 Jun 2017 18:23:33 -0700 Philadelphia Eagles WR Alshon Jeffery said he and QB Carson Wentz and the rest of the offense are starting to click. Fantasy Tip: Jeffery's injury history makes him a high-risk, high-reward fantasy option, but you have to start thinking about taking the gamble when it comes time to draft your WR2. Comment () | Share: Eagles | Nathan Gerry working well at LB Sun, 11 Jun 2017 11:11:27 -0700 Philadelphia Eagles S Nathan Gerry is working well in his conversion to linebacker.

Comment () | Share: Eagles | Jordan Matthews could play if needed Thu, 08 Jun 2017 08:02:35 -0700 Philadelphia Eagles WR Jordan Matthews (knee) could play if this were the regular season, according to head coach Doug Pederson. Fantasy Tip: Matthews has yet to take that next step to prove he's the go-to guy on a team. He remains a WR3 candidate in fantasy. Comment () | Share:  |
