Eagles News: Quez Watkins is staying humble while shining

How Quez Watkins went from backup to budding star - NBCSP
What sets Watkins apart is that he was a sixth-round pick, he hasn’t had anything handed to him and he’s kept that long-shot mentality even as he’s secured a roster spot. “I still got to earn my way,” he said. “Every day is an interview, and I keep stacking my days.” The most interesting thing about Watkins’ development is that he’s expanded his game to the point where the coaches are now comfortable putting him in the slot, which allows them to get their three best receivers on the field and gives the Eagles tremendous speed across the board.
