The Eagles made a change to their wide receiver group ahead of Sunday’s deadline to cut rosters to 90 players. They announced that they have signed Tahj Washington to the active roster. Brandon Hayes was waived in a corresponding move. Washington was a 2024 seventh-round pick by the Dolphins and was with the team until being waived earlier this week. He appeared in six games last season and had three catches for 37 yards. Hayes signed with the Eagles three weeks ago. He was undrafted out of Southeastern Louisiana. DeVonta Smith, Makai Lemon, Dontayvion Wicks, Hollywood Brown, Elijah Moore, Darius Cooper, Britain Covey, Quez Watkins, Danny Gray, Samori Toure, and Erik Ezukanma are also on the roster at receiver
Dontayvion Wicks is expected to open the season as the Eagles' WR2, with a cleaner path to regular snaps than in Green Bay
Wicks stood out with his route running during the Eagles' joint practices with the Patriots last Wednesday and Thursday, Cayden Steele of NJ.com reports. Though he was generally impressive in both practices, Wicks turned in one highlight-reel-worthy rep during Thursday's session, when he easily shook 1-on-1 coverage from New England cornerback Carlton Davis at the line of scrimmage for what would have been a big gain, per Henry McKenna of FoxSports.com. Acquired from the Packers in April and immediately signed to a one-year, $12.5 million extension, Wicks has been repping with the first-team offense for most of his first camp with the Eagles while No. 1 wideout DeVonta Smith and rookie first-round pick Makai Lemon have been slowed by hamstring injuries. Both Smith and Lemon are practicing again, but the time Lemon has missed along with his own strong performance could set the stage for Wicks to head into the regular season as the Eagles' No. 2 wideout
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks has been a monster at training camp and in joint practices this season. Wicks was traded from the Green Bay Packers to Philadelphia for a fifth- and sixth-round draft pick, and it appears the Eagles may have a big-time playmaker. During joint practice with the New England Patriots, Wicks continued to beat their defensive backs and make plays. Quarterback Jalen Hurts praised the receiver, saying, "He's got great work ethic. He's got great hunger. He's twitchy. He can attack the ball. He runs great routes. It'll be exciting to see him work this season with the aggression that he has." Wicks was underutilized in Green Bay's crowded receiver room, averaging fewer than four targets per game over three seasons. Currently ranked WR74 in RotoBaller's positional rankings, Wicks is a late-round player to watch in fantasy drafts
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Matthew Golden didn't have much to show for his rookie year until the very end. He caught 29 passes for 361 yards during the regular season, then went for 84 yards and his first NFL touchdown against Chicago in the playoffs. Green Bay has cleared out some of the traffic since then. Romeo Doubs left in free agency and Dontayvion Wicks was traded, leaving Golden in the top three with Christian Watson and Jayden Reed. The summer has helped his case, too. Golden caught a 57-yard touchdown from Jordan Love on Family Night, missed a couple of practices with a toe issue, then came right back without much trouble. On Friday against Denver, he was out there with the starters and caught a 19-yard pass from Love on fourth-and-inches during the opening touchdown drive. There are still plenty of mouths to feed once Tucker Kraft is included, so Golden isn't guaranteed a huge target jump. The opportunity is a lot cleaner than it was last year, though. RotoBaller has him 113th overall in PPR, and he's looking more interesting as a bench receiver with upside

Dontayvion Wicks trending towards Eagles WR2, Makai Lemon misses time with hamstring injury
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks keeps making noise in training camp. John Clark of NBC Sports Philadelphia called Wicks the Eagles' WR2 on Thursday and said he was "outstanding again" before highlighting another connection with Jalen Hurts. Wicks beat cornerback Riq Woolen for a touchdown on the play, talked a little trash afterward and then celebrated with Hurts. This hasn't been a one-day flash, either. Wicks has been making plays throughout camp, including a one-handed grab earlier this month, and Philadelphia has him with the starting group on its first unofficial depth chart. The Eagles acquired him from Green Bay in April after he caught 30 passes for 332 yards and two touchdowns last season. He has 108 catches for 1,328 yards and 11 scores through three NFL seasons. With A.J. Brown now in New England, there was always going to be room for another receiver to step forward. So far, Wicks looks like he is doing exactly that
Matthew Golden returns to practice after toe injury, expected to lead receiver group
Dontayvion Wicks is poised for a significant role in the Eagles' passing game, potentially competing for the WR2 spot. With DeVonta Smith and Makai Lemon sidelined, Wicks has an opportunity to impress and could be a valuable depth or sleeper pick
Jordan Love reports improved timing and chemistry with Green Bay's starting wide receivers Jayden Reed, Christian Watson, and Matthew Golden during training camp. This focus on key targets contrasts with last season's broader distribution, and Love believes it's building trust and understanding. Despite the offseason departures of Dontayvion Wicks and Romeo Doubs, Love anticipates a strong connection with his top three receivers
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Savion Williams was a standout during the team's training camp practice on Sunday, according to Weston Hodkiewicz of Packers.com. "I think he was seven of eight catching the football. I think he had a good day," head coach Matt LaFleur said. The 24-year-old was able to turn some heads with both Jayden Reed (ankle) and Matthew Golden (toe) sitting out with minor injuries. Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks are no longer in Green Bay in 2026, but Williams is still no better than fourth on the team's WR depth chart going into his second NFL season behind Reed, Golden, and Christian Watson. After being taken 87th overall in the third round last year from TCU, Williams caught all 10 of his targets for 78 yards and one touchdown while carrying the ball 11 times for 37 yards on the ground in 12 regular-season games for the Packers. Fantasy managers in single-year leagues will be ignoring Williams, but he could quickly become a waiver-wire priority if Green Bay deals with injuries to their starting receivers again
Jalen Hurts is developing strong chemistry with new wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks, who has emerged as the Eagles' WR2 in training camp. This connection is crucial as the team adapts to the departure of A.J. Brown and injuries to DeVonta Smith and Makai Lemon
