Jordan Matthews Youth Destiny Vaeao Jersey , Eagles agree to contract to bring wide receiver back to Philadelphia The Philadelphia Eagles are re-signing free agent wide receiver Jordan Matthews, according to a report from Jordan Schultz. The Eagles’ 2014 second-round pick is back in Philly.Matthews was spotted at the Eagles’ facility on Tuesday. The Eagles were likely putting the 26-year-old through a workout to check up on his health status. Matthews has dealt with a number of injury issues over the past few years. His most recent ailment was a hamstring injury that ultimately caused him to be waived by the Patriots with an injury settlement back in August. The Eagles desperately needed help at wide receiver considering Nelson Agholor, Kamar Aiken, and Shelton Gibson were their only healthy wideouts for this week’s game. Matthews offers the ability to make an immediate impact due to his knowledge of the offense and his relationship with Carson Wentz. As a rookie in 2016, Wentz targeted JMatt 117 time for 73 receptions, 804 yards, and three touchdowns. It also doesn’t hurt that Matthews is a hard-working guy who’s well-liked in the locker room.While Matthews makes some sense as a short-term option Womens Corey Clement Jersey , it’s hard to be overly thrilled about his return. JMatt is purely a possession receiver who’s limited to playing in the slot. This means that Nelson Agholor, who really excelled while replacing Matthews’ old role in 2017, will now be forced to play more on the outside. Agholor is capable of playing out on the boundary but it’s not the spot where he’s maximized. Some may cite Matthews’ production from 2014 through 2016 as reason to be excited about his return. The problem with using those stats to defend Matthews, however, is that they don’t account for context. I’ve previously laid out how those numbers were inflated and not truly representative of Matthews’ talent.

He’ll give the Eagles another receiving option against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. UPDATE: It’s official. Eagles placed Mike Wallace on injured reserve to free up a roster spot for JMatt.Mike Wallace injury update: There’s optimism Eagles receiver can return later this season The Philadelphia Eagles officially placed Mike Wallace, who suffered a fractured fibula in Week 2 Womens Corey Graham Jersey , on the injured reserve list earlier on Wednesday but his season might not be over just yet. NFL insider Ian Rapoport reports his understanding is “that there is optimism that Wallace can return late in the year. That indicates a clean break without a lot of collateral damage.”This report echoes what Doug Pederson had to say about Wallace during his Wednesday press conference.It also matches up with his potential recovery timeline, which could be around six-to-eight weeks. By being placed on injured reserve, we do know for sure that Wallace isn’t eligible to be activated until after Week 10. This means he’ll miss at least seven games; note that the Eagles have a bye in Week 9. We also now know that one of the following three players will not be coming back to the 53-man roster this season: Wallace, Mack Hollins, or Richard Rodgers. The NFL only allows two players to be returned from injured reserve per season. Hollins and Rodgers will be eligible to be activated after Week 8 since they were placed on IR leading up to Week 1. It’ll be interesting to see what the Eagles decide to do. It’s too early to say for sure what will happen because a lot of things can change from now until then. We also have to see how the players progress during their recoveries. For now, it’s nice to know Wallace isn’t guaranteed to miss the rest of the season.
