Eagles WR Jordan Matthews won't be shadowed by CB Josh Norman

Charlotte Observer

Oct 24, 2015 · 10:50 AM EDT

Bene Benwikere said he and Colin Jones have been practicing at nickel this week, and he doesn’t expect Josh Norman to line up inside against the Eagles.

“We’re not trying to overthink it and do too much because Josh is normally outside,” Benwikere said.

Norman said he’s confident in his ability to play inside. But he also has faith in Benwikere, who is coming off his best game of the season last week with two pass breakups in the win at Seattle.

Norman called Benwikere a “scatty guy” with quick hips and excellent ball skills.

“When you can have a guy like that playing against Jordan Matthews in the slot, that’s awesome,” Norman said.

Fantasy Impact:

This was one of our concerns about Matthews this week, that Panthers would go against history and use Norman to shadow Matthews all over the field. But the Panthers' cornerbacks confirmed that won't be the case, so Matthews is looking far more appealing heading into Week 7.

Eagles WR Riley Cooper (knee) missed practice again Thursday. If Cooper and Nelson Agholor can’t play, then Josh Huff would see a lot of snaps against Carolina, with Jordan Matthews drawing most of the attention from CB Josh Norman.

Eagles Beat: 'Bit of a surprise' that WR Nelson Agholor played so much in Week 1

Despite his first round draft status, it would have been a stretch to expect Nelson Agholor to make a splash in his first NFL appearance. The fact that he started and played 59 snaps - second only to Jordan Matthews' 63 - was a bit of a surprise.

But the extra playing time was likely because Kelly called for more passing than running plays. Matthews will be on the field either way. But Agholor and Miles Austin will likely be featured more on passing downs and the better-blocking Riley Cooper and Josh Huff on running downs.

Fantasy Impact:

Agholor played 80 percent of the snaps and was only targeted twice, catching one pass for five yards. Agholor is bound to have some good games, but he's not off to a good start, production-wise.

Sam Bradford 'fine' after mysterious X-ray

CBS Sports

Sep 15, 2015 · 1:57 PM EDT

Sam Bradford doesn't want Eagles fans worrying about the fact that he underwent X-rays after the team's loss to the Falcons on Monday night.

Wait ... Sam Bradford? X-rays? Gulp.

Apparently, after Bradford's final pass deflected off the hands of Jordan Matthews and ended up in the arms of the Falcons, which prevented the Eagles from overcoming a late two-point deficit, Bradford headed straight for the X-ray machine. And when Bradford undergoes an X-ray, people notice, even if he appears to be alright.

After, Bradford insisted that he's OK.

"Don't worry about it," he said via NFL.com. "I'm all good. They said everything is all good. I'm fine."

Fantasy Impact:

It's unclear where exactly Bradford could be hurt, if he even is hurt. Some have speculated that it could be an ankle injury, but Chip Kelly insisted that his quarterback is all good.
