After Jordan Matthews' injury settlement release from New England on Aug. 8, Matthews talked with Carson Wentz about returning to the Eagles, in a sort of semi-serious way, Matthews indicated Wednesday.
A reunion just seemed a bit far-fetched, the sort of thing you wish would happen but never does.
But with Mike Wallace breaking his right fibula in Tampa, the Eagles had three healthy wideouts going into Sunday's visit from the Indianapolis Colts – Nelson Agholor, Kamar Aiken, and Shelton Gibson. Wallace was placed on injured reserve to get Matthews onto the roster Wednesday.
"You don't really possibly think it could happen," Matthews said after the first practice of his second Eagles stint.
