The Eagles saw one of their wide receivers sidelined for a second straight day, opening the possibility that he may not play Monday night against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Watkins started the season strong, catching both of his targets for 17 yards, one of which resulted in a first down. Watkins in the slot can put pressure on nickel cornerbacks and safeties because of his speed, and the threat of wide receiver screens to him is always there because he could pick up substantial yards after the catch if a defender misses a tackle.
With Watkins out in back-to-back practices, the third wide receiver job for Monday appears it will be filled by. Zacchaeus, signed by the Eagles this offseason as a replacement for Zach Pascal, has not been targeted this season. Edmunds still appears to have a chance to play, considering he was at least on the field at one point. The return of Reed Blankenship , who was a full participant in practice, helps the secondary, but Edmunds has been good on special teams and when he replaced Blankenship last week. If he cannot play, Sydney Brown could once again see more snaps in the defensive backfield.
