Philadelphia Eagles
UPDATE: Eagles Position Preview for the Early Offseason: Wide Receiver
In 2023, one of the NFL’s top tandems generated even more, and they ought to be in for a fantastic season this year. A.J. Brown achieved a career-high (and best for any Eagles wide receiver ever) 106 receptions for 1,456 yards and 7 touchdowns in 17 games, setting an NFL record in six straight games with 125 yards or more in receiving. Brown was a dominant player who could be found all over the field. Throughout the season, he and DeVonta Smith again turned defenses inside out. Smith played 91 percent of the team’s offensive snaps and added 81 receptions for 1,066 yards and 7 touchdowns.
With the passing game going through both of them in the wide receivers room, the Eagles still gained contributions from their other receivers. Julio Jones made some plays and added 3 touchdowns after joining the team midseason, Quez Watkins added 15 receptions for 142 yards, and Olamide Zaccheaus was a do-anything player who had 2 touchdowns among his 10 catches. Britain Covey didn’t see a lot of action as a wide receiver, but he was a force in the punt return game.
Important WR Fact: Brown and Smith each eclipsed 1,000 receiving yards for the second straight season, setting a franchise record. The two were the first receivers in Eagles history to record more than 1,000 receiving yards in a single season in 2022.
Devon Allen, A.J. Brown, Britain Covey, Shaquan Davis, Jacob Harris, Griffin Hebert, Joseph Ngata, DeVonta Smith, and Austin Watkins are among the players who have contracts through 2024.
