A couple of months ago, the Philadelphia Eagles’ front office opened up the league new year with a bang. Knowing they needed to upgrade the offense that struggled big time in 2018, Howie Roseman and company made a call to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. That specific call gave the Eagles back a blast from the past as DeSean Jackson returned, courtesy of a sixth-round pick.
Since Jackson’s unexpected departure in 2014, the Eagles haven’t quite had a deep threat of his caliber. Torrey Smith did a decent job stretching the field in 2017, but he wasn’t exactly the biggest downfield threat for Carson Wentz.
