The anticipation has been building since the Eagles made DeVonta Smith their first-round pick last spring.
How would the skinny wide receiver hold up in a game situation? How would the Eagles use him?
And, more importantly, how good is he?
All of this was put on hold for two weeks when Smith suffered a knee injury during a practice on July 31. Smith missed the Eagles' preseason opener last Thursday against the Steelers.
But there's a chance that Smith will play Thursday night when the Eagles face the New England Patriots.
Smith returned to team drills Tuesday in the second day of the Eagles' joint practices with the Patriots.
