The Eagles downgraded WR A.J. Brown’s status for Week 4 against the Buccaneers to out with a hamstring injury.

Brown has missed the last two games and will now miss a third straight game with his injury. The Eagles elevated a pair of wide receivers, Parris Campbell and John Ross, from the practice squad for Sunday’s game against the Buccaneers. It will be those two and Jahan Dotson as the main wide receivers with Brown and DeVonta Smith (concussion). Tight end Dallas Goedert may be the biggest beneficiary.

Still no A.J. Brown (hamstring) and DeVonta Smith (concussion) at practice. #Eagles WRs trending toward not playing Sunday at the Bucs.

Things have gotten thin in Philadelphia, and they may have no choice but to try and get Goedert to repeat his 10-170-0 stat line from last week. It's probably best to skip the ancillary wide receivers here and just fire Saquon Barkley and Goedert everywhere you can.

Philadelphia has placed receiver Britain Covey on injured reserve after he suffered a shoulder injury during Sunday’s win over New Orleans.

Covey had to exit the game in the first half and was unable to return. He has caught seven passes for 34 yards so far this season. He’s also returned one punt for 9 yards.

Normally this may not be big news but the Eagles were involving Covey over the last two weeks before his injury. The other reason to pay attention is Brown is dealing with a hamstring issue and is in question for Week 4 - as is Smith who is in concussion protocol. That leaves Dotson, Wilson and Campbell as - possibly - the Eagles top-three WRs heading into Week 4. Even if that's the case, look for Goedert and Barkley to be heavily involved against the Bucs. Brown does have a chance to play but it's another situation to monitor this week.

Eagles are listing WR A.J. Brown as officially out for Sunday’s game versus the Saints.

With Brown ruled out, Smith is once again locked into a WR1 role here in Week 3. Dotson and Covey can be left off fantasy lineups, as the former earned only one target last week, while the latter was nothing more than a dump-off option, earning a 1.4 aDOT on six targets.

#Eagles coach Nick Sirianni said CJ Gardner-Johnson “tweaked something” on Wednesday. As per usual, he wouldn’t rule him or A.J. Brown out for Sunday yet.

If Brown is out, Smith is once again locked into a WR1 role here in Week 3. Dotson and Covey can be left off fantasy lineups, as the former earned only one target last week, while the latter was nothing more than a dump-off option, earning a 1.4 aDOT on six targets.

The Eagles played without wide receiver A.J. Brown in Monday night’s loss to the Falcons and Brown suggested that the team is going to continue playing without him for a while.

Brown told Lisa Salters of ESPN that he will miss a couple of weeks with a hamstring injury. Head coach Nick Sirianni didn’t confirm that during his postgame press conference, however.

“We’ll see. We’ll see,” Sirianni said, via a transcript from the team. “I don’t know that yet. You know I won’t give you that information yet because I don’t know. We’ll see how that goes.”

Brown made it seem like he'd at least miss Weeks 2 and 3 based on the interview. As we pointed out Monday night after the news broke, the Eagles do have a Week 5 bye, leaving the possibility the Eagles keep Brown out until after the bye week, if injury is serious enough or they want to play it very safe. Sirianni is at least leaving the door open Brown is back before the team's bye. It will be a situation worth monitoring this week. The Eagles play at the Saints in an early Sunday game in Week 3.

Eagles WR A.J. Brown told ESPN that he does expect to miss a couple of weeks due to the hamstring injury he suffered Friday.

Owners can expect him to now be out for Week 3, but perhaps Week 4 is possible given the Eagles bye week comes in Week 5. This will be something to monitor. The hope is Brown is back for Week 4, which is an early game at the Bucs. The Eagles have an early game in Week 6 as well, home against the Browns. Smith should be the team's WR1 with Brown out and newly acquired Dotson should start to see more reps. Wilson is a rookie who really stood out this summer and could end up seeing some snaps as well. Covey played well in Week 2.

Eagles WR A.J. Brown did not practice Saturday due to a hamstring injury and is listed as questionable for Monday’s game against the Falcons.

Brown began feeling tightness in his hamstring during practice Friday and Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said the team would be “cautious” with him Saturday. So this could be a case of the Eagles just giving him some rest before Monday’s game. If Brown can’t go, Jahan Dotson could be in line for a bigger role Monday. If possible, have a backup option ready for Brown, such as Dotson if he’s available.

Jahan Dotson has not been with the Eagles for very long, but he’s made a positive impression on the team’s offensive coordinator.

In his Monday press conference, Kellen Moore said the team was really excited to have the opportunity to add the third-year receiver.

Moore said, "...he’ll be certainly a nice aspect of this thing, and he’ll be heavily involved.”

Moore added via the story that Dotson will need to keep growing and learning offense, but then did add that he'll be heavily involved. So while it may take some time, the Eagles are at least saying they expect Dotson to be a big part of things. Moore is obviously a new offensive coordinator, but over the last several years, the Eagles WR3 hasn't been fantasy relevant, mostly because of having Brown and Smith and Goedert at TE. The team added Saquon Barkley at RB and he's also expected to be heavily involved in the passing game so there seem to be a lot of mouths to feed in this offense.

After nine NFL seasons, Eagles WR DeVante Parker has decided to retire, he said Monday night.

As much as he looked forward to his time with the Eagles, Parker decided the time had come to spend more time with his family that includes his four children.

Parker was projected as part of the back half of the WR rotation, so it could open up some usage for rookie Johnny Wilson down the field. The target share behind Brown and Smith will be light either way, though.
