  • According to the Philadelphia Inquirer, Eagles wide receiver Jordan Matthews has missed the past week of OTAs. He is dealing with knee tendinitis and his absence is being considered precautionary.
  • At 73.7, Matthews graded as the 56th best wide receiver out 115 eligible in 2016. This was on par with both his 2014 (76.9) and 2015 (68.6) seasons.
  • Matthews has primarily played in the slot throughout his career. 85 percent of his routes run throughout his career have been out of the slot.
