Eagles activate Quez Watkins and Jason Huntley from reserve/COVID-19

Well, here’s a silver lining to the Philadelphia Eagles’ Week 15 game against the Washington Football Team stupidly being postponed to Tuesday. Starting wide receiver Quez Watkins and practice squad running back Jason Huntley have been activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list, according to an official team announcement.

Watkins and Huntley were originally placed on the COVID list on Monday. Now activated, Watkins is eligible to play in this week’s game.

It’s unclear if Watkins will see his usual starting snap allotment given the conditioning layoff and missed practice time. But he figures to contribute in at least some capacity.
