From the way his teammates are talking, Eagles rookie wideout Josh Huff could be sidelined for quite some time.

Huff, the team’s third-round pick, injured his shoulder on the opening kickoff of Friday night’s preseason game against the Patriots and didn’t return. On Sunday, coach Chip Kelly said X-rays came back negative but added that Huff’s shoulder was in a sling.

Kelly, who isn’t overly revealing about injuries, said Huff “probably” would be out for the rest of the week, including Thursday’s preseason game against the Steelers.

Riley Cooper painted a more pessimistic picture of Huff returning anytime soon.

“It’s sad to see what happened to Huff,” Cooper said. “I don’t know the severity of it. But I know he’s hurting and he’s going to be out for a little bit. That’s a given. He’d been doing really well. Special teams, I’ve been watching him do everything. I took him under my wing, just trying to explain things to him. We’re very similar personalities.”

Fantasy Impact: 

Huff was only going to be a WR4 at best on the Eagles, but was shaping up to be the team's kickoff returner.

Eagles wide receivers Jeremy Maclin and Riley Cooper were out on the practice field as the session got underway.

Monday was the second day in a row that Cooper practiced, but it was the first time in over two weeks that the trio of Cooper, Maclin and McCoy were all out on the practice field together.

Fantasy Impact: 

Maclin was said to have a minor hamstring injury and had it been a regular season game against the Pats on Friday night, he could have played. After missing all of last season, any time Maclin doesn't practice or play it's a reason for concern.

Eagles receiver Riley Cooper has missed two preseason games and team drills at practice for two weeks, due to an apparent ankle injury.

On Sunday, Cooper returned to 7-on-7 and 11-on-11 sessions at practice. He hopes to play in the next preseason game, on Thursday night against the Steelers.

“Yeah, that’s our goal,” Cooper said Sunday, via Geoff Mosher of CSNPhilly.com. “I’m pretty excited. I’ve been out a while. Two weeks. It feels like a long time.”

Cooper’s status had been cloaked in a bit of mystery, since coach Chip Kelly initially suggested Cooper would be back soon.

With starters rarely if ever playing in the preseason finale, Cooper has only one chance to get sort-of live reps until the reps become fully live in Week One against the Jaguars.

Fantasy Impact: 

The Eagles really need Cooper back with Jeremy Maclin a little banged up now. Fortunately for the Birds, Jordan Matthews bounced back after a not-so-good debut in preseason Week 1. The Eagles WRs were questionable coming into camp, but injuries have made things a bit more cloudy at the position...

Of all the bubble players on the Eagles’ 90-man roster, none may have boosted his chance of making the team more than WR Arrelious Benn.

With Riley Cooper and Jeremy Maclin sidelined Friday, Benn saw significant snaps and came up with two of the Eagles’ most dynamic plays against the Patriots in their 42-35 preseason loss at Gillette Stadium (see Instant Replay).

In the second quarter he blocked a punt that the Eagles' offense converted into its first touchdown. On the next drive, Benn caught a six-yard touchdown pass from Mark Sanchez that tied the game at 21-21.

Fantasy Impact: 

The 25-year-old former second-round pick of the Buccaneers is battling with Ifeanyi Momah, Jeff Maehl, Brad Smith, Damaris Johnson and several other fringe receivers for either one or two spots after the top four.
