Eagles' wideouts coming off awful game

THEY MANAGED to tiptoe away from the scene without attracting a lot of notice, in all the hubbub over Carson Wentz breaking a rib and Lane Johnson facing a possible 10-game PED suspension, but the Eagles' wide receivers were awful in last Thursday's preseason opener.

The longest reception by a wideout went for 10 yards. It belonged to Paul Turner, an undrafted rookie from Louisiana Tech, who also was the team's leading receiver for the evening, with six catches for 34 yards.

The two longest receptions went to tight ends - 19 yards to Zach Ertz and 16 to M.
