Eagles Beat: WR John Hightower could move up depth chart

My offensive MVP award goes to John Hightower. The rookie receiver has done well all camp and could move up the depth chart if Jalen Reagor is sidelined for an extended period. Hightower got wide open over the middle on an inside slant and Hurts hit him for an easy score. The catch of the day, and perhaps all of camp, came a period later when Hightower ran a stop-and-go fade route into the corner of the end zone.

Fantasy Impact: 

Reagor is expected to miss four weeks according to reports, which likely puts him on the sidelines for Weeks 1 and 2. If that extends, Hightower could benefit the most. The Eagles are finding themselves in a familiar situation at the WR position as they continue to drop to injury. Hightower could find his way into the top three competing with DeSean Jackson, J.J. Arcega-Whiteside and Greg Ward.
