But in his first game back, Sunday’s loss to the Reds, Ozuna played like a different Eagles quarterback: Nick Foles … the St. Louis Rams version.
Yes, in his first game back from the disabled list, Ozuna went hitless. As he pointed out while turning down an interview request, “It’s just one game back.” And he’s right. But there’s no question that Ozuna’s production in this decisive month will help decide whether September is the final month.
There are some reasons to be optimistic about Ozuna, who went on the disabled list with right shoulder inflammation, an injury that had been bothering him for much of the year (and making some of his throws look more like a shot-put).
