The Eagles completed nine passes to wide receivers in their season-opening victory over Atlanta, for just 43 yards. Eight of those receptions, for 33 yards, went to Nelson Agholor. The other was the first NFL catch for DeAndre Carter, a training-camp feel-good story whose 53-snap debut was pretty surprising for a guy who spent three previous seasons unable to make an NFL roster.
Quarterback Nick Foles' 15-yard reception on the new Philly Philly play accounted for more yardage than any catch by an Eagles wide receiver.
Add the three wideouts the Eagles signed to their practice squad Monday – Texans veteran Braxton Miller, ex-Falcon and Brown Reggie Davis, and former Jaguar Dorren Miller — to reports of former Ravens first-round pick Breshad Perriman and ex-Browns first-rounder Corey Coleman working out for the team, and one might infer that management and the coaching staff thought Thursday night's offensive struggles went deeper than Foles not looking sharp.
