Posted May 21, 20241 yr Just reported that WR DeVante Parker had announced he is retiring. https://thelibertyline.com/2024/05/20/eagles-devante-parker-retires/
May 21, 20241 yr Author Honestly … no loss. I’d sooner see one of the younger WRs get those reps and roster spot.
May 21, 20241 yr Was an uphill battle for him to make the team. Best wishes. It was either retire or get cut after busting his hump all pre-season.
May 21, 20241 yr As WR3 I’d like young guys to get shot but as backup to WR 1/2 there is no depth at all. One of those potential issues you hope doesn’t come into play

One of those potential issues you hope doesn’t come into play They'll likely keep Ngata on the practice squad that they can call up if Brown or Smith get injured (if he doesn't win a spot on the 53 that is). Plus this likely increases the odds that Campbell makes the 53 - he can play inside or out.

I was hoping we'd sign someone like Chark or Zay Jones to a 3 year deal ... someone proven at this level that wouldn't cost an arm and a leg and could be here for more than a year.
May 21, 20241 yr He must really like his kids. I'd choose playing in the NFL over spending more time with my kids. 😜

A third WR who is any good will give us a killer trio. between our RB, and TE, and WRs opposing defense will have a hard time covering.

Yep ... signing someone (or swinging a trade for a WR) is definitely an option as well (and if I had to guess the more likely route we go).
