Let’s make long stories as short as possible. Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Shelton Gibson is either going to bloom late, or we were fooled by some stellar play in the preseason yet again. Let’s do a roll call.
Five wide receivers sit on the Eagles current roster, Nelson Agholor, Kamar Aiken, Jordan Matthews, Alshon Jeffery and Shelton Gibson. We’ve racked our brains about what to do while the ‘Birds’ have shuffled the deck in their receiving corps over and over again.
At times, they’ve seemed desperate out there, losing Mike Wallace after he fractured his fibula and seeing guys like Markus Wheaton a shot, but it wasn’t supposed to be this way.
