The Eagles went toe-to-toe with the Los Angeles Chargers yesterday in a tough, but encouraging loss. While not all things were perfect, the Eagles should head into the rest of the season confident about some of their rookies.
DeVonta Smith: A
DeVonta Smith showed exactly the type of player he can be for the Eagles against a talented Chargers secondary yesterday. The 10th overall pick caught five passes for 116 yards and a score, averaging over 23 yards a catch.
It wasn’t soft defense that allowed for Smith to put up numbers either.
