Matthews, Eagles receivers work to fix their drop problem

Practice was over and Jordan Matthews did what he always does. He walked over to the JUGS machine, pulled the cover and punched the clock on catching more footballs.

There might have been a reluctance to catch all those extra balls in light of his recent struggles. Matthews had a long week off to think about his dropped passes this season, especially those last two in the Eagles' loss to the Panthers before their bye week.

He could have reassessed his habits and decided that maybe the overtime was having an adverse effect on his performance in games.
