Eagles training camp position battle preview: Wide receivers

Can somebody step up on the outside?

The 2015 Eagles had one of the worst groups of wide receivers in the league, and 2016 will likely be a similar story, but there is reason for hope. Gone are Riley Cooper and Miles Austin, no longer able to take away playing time from young players, gone is an offensive line coach as the wide receivers coach, and gone is Chip Kelly’s stale and predictable playbook.

The incumbents: Nelson Agholor* on the outside, Jordan Matthews in the slot, Josh Huff on the bench.

*We will assume that the under investigation Agholor will remain on the roster.
