Eagles’ Alshon Jeffery ‘not worried about targets’ after his production has slowed down

The second play of the Eagles' game-winning drive in last Sunday's win over the New York Giants was a 21-yard reception by Alshon Jeffery, with about 14 yards coming after the catch. Jeffery juked his way near midfield while making three defenders miss, displaying run-after-the-catch elusiveness that's not considered a staple of the 6-foot-3, 218-pound Jeffery.

It would behoove the Eagles to see all that's in Jeffery bag, but he needs the ball to do so. Jeffery, who is the Eagles' No. 1 wide receiver, returned from offseason shoulder surgery in Week 4 and immediately offered the Eagles a jolt, with 25 catches for 306 yards and four touchdowns in his first four games.
