The Philadelphia Eagles' receiving corps has taken a hit with Alshon Jeffery ruled out for Sunday's game against the New England Patriots.
The team announced Friday an ankle injury will prevent Jeffery from suiting up.
Jeffery's injury also creates a hole in the fantasy world that owners will have to fill. One good thing is the Eagles used some of their resources during the offseason to replenish their crop of receivers after it proved to be thin last season.
Philadelphia's receiving corps has played short-handed throughout the year after losing DeSean Jackson for the season due to a core muscle injury that required surgery.
