The Eagles need to make Quez Watkins a bigger part of the offense

The Eagles drafted three wide receivers in the 2020 NFL Draft. They took TCU’s Jalen Reagor in the first round (21st overall), Boise State’s John Hightower in the fifth round (168th overall) and Quez Watkins out of Southern Miss in the sixth round (200th overall).

If a football fan knew nothing about where the Eagles’ wideouts were drafted and watched the team this year, it would be an easy assumption that Watkins was the one taken in the first round and Reagor was the sixth-round selection.

The Eagles had an absolutely putrid offense against the Panthers on Sunday, pulling out a 21-18 win after trailing 15-3 at one point.
