Goodwin gave the Eagles one thing they desperately needed at broad receiver, and that was experience..
Theyre now down to simply one healthy receiver with more than 28 profession receptions, and hes 33 years of ages and made it through just one video game in 2015.
After that? The Eagles have 8 broad receivers who have actually played a total of 36 combined career games, captured a total of 52 passes and scored an overall of two goals.
Hes been hurt a lot, and his only big season was 2017, but he has actually played 75 video games over parts of 7 seasons, and he has actually caught 140 passes and scored 13 touchdowns.
Heres a look at the healthy receivers on the lineup aside from Jackson with their career statistics as training school starts:.
JJ Arcega-Whiteside: 23 years old, 16 games, 10 catches, 169 backyards, 1 TDManasseh Bailey: 23 years old, rookieDeontay Burnett: 22 years old, 6 games, 12 catches, 191 yards, 0 TDRobert Davis: 25 years of ages: 7 games, 2 catches, 17 yards, O TDJohn Hightower: 24 years old: rookieJalen Reagor: 21 years of ages: rookieGreg Ward: 25 years old: 7 games, 28 catches, 254 yards, 1 TDQuez Watkins: 21 years of ages: rookie.
His departure leaves the Eagles with 10 receivers on the roster..
Barring a veteran finalizing in the next couple days, the Eagles will go into camp without a single healthy large receiver in between the age of 25 and 33.
Marquise Goodwins decision to sit out the 2020 season leaves the Eagles in a tough and precarious spot.
When hes healthy, we all know what Jackson can do. But hes four months shy of his 34th birthday and who knows what DeSean Jackson well get at this point. Alshon Jeffery stays something of a mystery, still rehabbing from a severe late-season foot injury and coming off an inadequate season even when he was healthy. Who understands when well even see him on the field.
Just one of them was on the 53-man roster when in 2015 started.
What do they truly have after Jackson?
Four of them are rookies and 2 of them– Deontay Burnett and Robert Davis– are practically novices.

Have a look down to Dallas and the Eagles greatest opposition in the NFC East, and Dak Prescott is throwing to Amani Cooper, CeeDee Lamb and Michael Gallup. Thats frightening.
But the loss of Goodwin certainly includes some seriousness for these young kids. Its going to require them to mature quick..
More on the Eagles.
The most accomplished of the group is Greg Ward, who has 28 profession receptions. The most appealing of the group is Jalen Reagor, the novice first-round choice.
Of the receivers the Eagles project to have on the field on opening day, Jackson and Arcega-Whiteside are the only ones whove played more than seven profession video games.
The Eagles have to specify where their broad receiver corps is scaring opposing defenses. Theyve absolutely got some talent, but theres a great deal of work to do and very little time to do it.

Now, theres a lot to be delighted about with these young guys. Reagor has a possibility to be a stud, Arcega-Whiteside has to be better than what we saw last year (possibly?) and fast novices Hightower and Watkins will now get more representatives, more of a look, more chances with Goodwin pulling out.
But this is a really hard offseason for novices, with no minicamps, no preseason video games and just a handful of genuine practices leading up to opening day.
And lets be honest. Howie Roseman does not have a great track record when it concerns finalizing or preparing wide receivers..
Its simple to believe this group is various. They can all run and theyve all got some pretty outstanding highlight reels..
We all understand what Jackson can do when hes healthy. Alshon Jeffery stays something of a secret, still rehabbing from a serious late-season foot injury and coming off an ineffective season even when he was healthy. Who understands when well even see him on the field.
The most accomplished of the group is Greg Ward, who has 28 profession receptions. The most experienced of the group is JJ Arcega-Whiteside, who played 16 games as a novice in 2015. The most promising of the group is Jalen Reagor, the novice first-round choice.
