Philadelphia Eagles WR Makai Lemon (hamstring) returned to practice Thursday, Aug. 20.
Huddle Up: He has been out for multiple weeks. Lemon's ADP sits at 199, and the rookie is slated to be the top slot receiver option. He's sure to be a popular WR5 flyer in drafts, and in this offense, he could certainly outperform that.

Philadelphia Eagles WR Makai Lemon (hamstring) missed his eighth consecutive practice on Monday, Aug. 17, but he has been working on the side in recent days and could be nearing a return to the practice field.
Huddle Up: While a rookie missing a big chunk of training camp is far from ideal, Lemon is still penciled in as one of the team's starters for Week 1. He's a later-round WR4/WR5 type that could surpass that designation depending on how things shake out in terms of targets with Lemon, Dontayvion Wicks, Hollywood Brown, and Elijah Moore.

Philadelphia Eagles WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) participated in practice Monday, Aug. 17.
Huddle Up: Smith had been sidelined for nearly two weeks because of the injury, but it seems like he is slow to full strength. He will be the No. 1 receiver for the Eagles this season with A.J. Brown no longer on the team and will be a starting option every week if he is healthy.

Philadelphia Eagles TE Eli Stowers played 19 offensive snaps, of 43 percent of the plays, in the preseason opener Saturday, Aug. 15, against the Baltimore Ravens. He had three receptions for 12 yards on three targets.
Huddle Up: Stowers is making a big to serve as the primary backup to Dallas Goedert, so pay close attention. He is trying to hold off veterans Grant Calcaterra and Johnny Mundt for the No. 2 TE job in Philly. With Goedert's injury history, Stowers could have fantasy value sooner rather than later. He's not worth drafting in most leagues just yet, but monitor him closely.

Philadelphia Eagles WR Makai Lemon (hamstring) is not expected to play in tonight's preseason game, but was playing catch on the field during early warmups, according to a source on Saturday, Aug. 15.
Huddle Up: Lemon, the Eagles' first-round wide receiver, has been saddled with a hamstring injury for some of OTAs and all of training camp, so the Eagles may just be playing things very cautiously with the rookie. He's expected to be in the mix early on for a starting wide receiver spot next to DeVonta Smith, so continue drafting him in seventh or eighth round in fantasy drafts as an upside play later in the season.

Philadelphia Eagles WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) did not participate in practice Thursday, Aug. 13.
Huddle Up: Smith has not practiced this week because of the injury, so fantasy players should monitor the situation to see when he will return to practice. He will be the main receiver for the Eagles this season if healthy and can be at least a No. 2 receiver in fantasy leagues.

Philadelphia Eagles WR Makai Lemon (hamstring) did not participate in practice Thursday, Aug. 13.
Huddle Up: Lemon has been sidelined over a week because of the injury, so fantasy players will need to see if he can return to the field next week. He is in line for a starting job this season and can be at least a No. 4 receiver in fantasy leagues.

Philadelphia Eagles RB Saquon Barkley (ankle) left practice early Thursday, Aug. 13, and had his ankle checked out by a trainer.
Huddle Up: Fantasy can monitor the situation, but it does not appear like Barkley is dealing with a serious injury. He will be a big part of the offensive again this season and should be a weekly starting option in all fantasy leagues.

Philadelphia Eagles WR Makai Lemon (hamstring) did not participate in practice Saturday, Aug. 8.
Huddle Up: Lemon will probably be eased back into practice since he has a hamstring injury, so there is a good chance he misses more practice. He is in line to be one of the starting receivers for the Eagles this season and can be a No. 4 receiver in leagues.

Philadelphia Eagles WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) did not participate in practice Saturday, Aug. 8.

Philadelphia Eagles WR Makai Lemon (hamstring) is out of practice Tuesday, Aug. 4.
Huddle Up: There must be something in the water over there because DeVonta Smith is also sitting out with a hamstring ailment. Lemon's ADP is roughly 95 right now, which puts him in the back end of the eighth round. He'll be a WR3 option with some upside.

Philadelphia Eagles WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) is out of practice Tuesday, Aug. 4.
Huddle Up: This is a prove-it year for Smith, who's now the unquestioned No. 1 with A.J. Brown gone. Smith finished with a 77-1,008-4 line last season and wound up the WR19 in PPR leagues. This is a similar scenario to when Antonio Brown left the Pittsburgh Steelers and JuJu Smith-Schuster was the guy. Will he ascend or will he flounder? He's a midrange WR2 in fantasy if you're willing to find out.

Philadelphia Eagles WR Makai Lemon (undisclosed) did not participate in team drills during practice Monday, Aug. 3.
Huddle Up: It is not known if Lemon is receiving some time off or if he is dealing with an injury, so fantasy players can keep an eye on the situation. Lemon is in line to be one of the starting receivers for the Eagles this season and can be at least a No. 4 receiver in fantasy leagues.

New England Patriots WR A.J. Brown (thumb) suffered a dislocated thumb during practice Monday, Aug. 3, but was able to continue practicing despite the injury.
Huddle Up: Brown could miss a few days this week because of the injury, but it does not appear to be a big issue. He will see plenty of targets this season with his new team and will be a weekly starting option in all fantasy leagues.

Philadelphia Eagles WR Dontayvion Wicks had "another quality practice" on Saturday, Aug. 1, according to Tim McManus of ESPN.com.
Huddle Up: Wicks has been drawing praise for his performance since training camp began, and he could emerge as Philadelphia's No. 2 receiver, especially if it takes rookie Makai Lemon time to adjust to the NFL. Wicks could be worth a look as a WR5.

Philadelphia Eagles WR DeVonta Smith should see extra targets coming his way in 2026 following the trade of WR AJ Brown. Head coach Nick Sirianni is "excited" about the opportunities he will have.
Huddle Up: Smith finished as a low-end WR2 in 2025, but with the departure of Brown now complete, he has a chance to rise up to be a top-end WR2.

Philadelphia Eagles WR Dontayvion Wicks said he is ready to prove that the Eagles made the correct decision trading for him this offseason. "It just showed me the value and love that Philly has for me, and I want to come out and show what I'm worth," Wicks said.
Huddle Up: Wicks had a quiet 2025 season for the Packers, but he finds himself in a better situation in Philadelphia. Following the trade of A.J. Brown, Wicks could emerge as Philadelphia's No. 2 receiver and a WR3 for fantasy owners.

Philadelphia Eagles WR Makai Lemon (hamstring) said he is back at full strength ahead of training camp.
Huddle Up: Although Lemon missed time during the offseason program, he should still have a chance to open the season as a starter. That being said, Lemon is certainly a player whose role could grow as a the season progresses. Target him as a high-upside WR4 in redraft leagues.

New England Patriots QB Drake Maye is looking to build chemistry with WR A.J. Brown during training camp and hints "there's already some there for me."
Huddle Up: A.J. Brown has a chance to be a WR1 for fantasy players in 2026. Drake Maye was able to have success with wide receivers of lesser talent last season, and now giving him a bona fide WR1 should allow the offense to take the next step with Brown leading in nearly every category.

Philadelphia Eagles RB Saquon Barkley had four runs of 20-plus yards last season after recording 17 such runs the previous year.
Huddle Up: While Barkley saw a significant drop in efficiency last year, he still managed to top 1,400 yards from scrimmage on more than 300 touches. Even if he doesn't return to his elite form, Barkley should still provide a RB1 floor thanks to his heavy workload.

Philadelphia Eagles WR Hollywood Brown is expected to have "a role" in the team's offense in 2026, according to ESPN's Aaron Schatz.
Huddle Up: Brown may be expected to have a role in the offense, but Schatz isn't projecting it to be productive. The passing offense of the Eagles isn't likely to be able to provide Brown with enough targets or a role large enough to matter much in fantasy.

Philadelphia Eagles TE Dallas Goedert averaged 39.4 receiving yards per game in 2025, his lowest average since his rookie season.
Huddle Up: While Goedert's yardage totals left something to be desired, he did finish with career highs in receptions (60) and touchdowns (11). Although there will likely be some regression in his touchdown total, Goedert should maintain a steady role in the passing game. He can be a low-end TE1.

Philadelphia Eagles WR Makai Lemon was primarily featured in the slot during minicamp and workouts, and will be utilized in pre-snap motion with his short-area quickness being a key the team wants to take advantage of, in the opinion of Tim McManus of ESPN on Monday, June 29.
Huddle Up: Lemon will likely be ready for the start of the training camp. He is in line to be a starting receiver right away for the Eagles and can be considered a WR4 with a chance to become more valuable as the season goes on in an Eagles' offense that likely will be very condensed.

Philadelphia Eagles RB Tank Bigsby could earn a bigger offensive role if he performs well during training camp and the preseason, in the opinion of EaglesWire's Glenn Erby.
Huddle Up: Saquon Barkley will receive most of the work at running back, but Bigsby could receive a few extra touches if the team thinks he has earned a bigger role. He can be a late round pick in some deeper leagues but will not be a starting option unless Barkley suffers an injury.

Philadelphia Eagles WR Hollywood Brown is expected to be used as a deep threat for the Eagles this upcoming season if he can stay healthy, in the opinion of EaglesWire's Glenn Erby.
Huddle Up: The Eagles traded A.J. Brown this offseason, so Hollywood Brown has a chance to earn a solid role in the passing game this upcoming season. He has not posted more than 587 yards in any of the last three seasons but did post five touchdowns in 2025. He can be a late round pick in fantasy leagues but is unlikely to be a starting option most weeks.

New England Patriots WR A.J. Brown has shown an "immediate" connection with QB Drake Maye, according to Mike Reiss of ESPN.com.
Huddle Up: The Patriots added Brown this offseasn to give Maye a true No. 1 target, and it sounds like he is doing his best to fill that role. Brown struggled with consistency in his final year in Philadelphia, but he still showcased his WR1 upside. If Maye and Brown continue to build a rapport, Brown could be push to be a top-10 fantasy option at the receiver position.
