It took a Carson Wentz & DeSean Jackson masterclass in week one last year to pull the Eagles back from the brink of a meltdown. There was so much hype around the team before the season but it all fell apart so quickly, with one man bringing a harsh reality-check to the team – WR Terry McLaurin.
A third-round pick in last year’s draft, McLaurin quickly became a problem for the Eagles. Many overlooked his blazing speed and craftiness due to where he was drafted, but were soon made to pay. McLaurin made his NFL debut in spicy fashion, punishing the Eagles with 125 receiving yards and a 69-yard touchdown.
