2021 Receiving Projections
2020 Fantasy Outlook
Someone has to line up outside and catch passes for the Eagles. Last year, no wide receiver cracked 500 yards for the team that attempted the eighth most passes. Jeffery came the closest with 490 in 10 games, but per usual, injuries did him in, this time a Lisfranc fracture that required surgery in December. While Jeffery is expected to heal prior to training camp, it's a difficult injury, especially for a player of his size. Moreover, there have been offseason rumors of a rift between Jeffery and QB Carson Wentz, creating the possibility of a trade. Should he return to health, Jeffery will be playing somewhere. At 6-3, 218, he's massive, and his 80-inch wingspan is akin to that of an NBA shooting guard. At his peak, Jeffery ran a 4.48 40, but at 30 years old and with his history of injuries, those days likely are gone. Last year, Jeffery managed only 11.4 YPC and 6.7 YPT, both career lows, and had only six catches of 20-plus yards. While TE Zach Ertz has long been Wentz's favorite target, the rest of the Eagles' receiving corps is thin even with 33-year old deep threat DeSean Jackson presumably returning to health and first-round pick Jalen Reagor joining the team. Jeffery could still be a starter if he ends up staying. Read Past Outlooks

Will be released
The Eagles plan to release Jeffery when the new league year begins March 17, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Jeffery's imminent release doesn't come as any sort of surprise, given that the soon-to-be 32-year-old carries a $14 million cap hit for 2021. He only suited up for seven games during an injury-riddled 2020 campaign, securing six catches for 115 yards and one touchdown, the lowest totals of his career. Jeffery hasn't put up a 1,000-yard season since 2014, and he's now logged back-to-back years with under 500 receiving yards. With plenty of big-name wideouts scheduled to hit free agency this offseason, Jeffrey seems unlikely to encounter a bidding war for his services.

Jerry Donabedian reads offseason tea leaves for every NFL team, including an up-and-coming Chargers squad that needs to make tough decisions on Hunter Henry and Mike Williams.

Washington can clinch the NFC East with a win Sunday night against Philadelphia, but fantasy players may have a tough time deciding exactly where the fantasy points will come from for both teams.

Michael Gallup may have been a fantasy bust in 2020, but his late-season usage and production suggests a 1,000-yard season could be around the corner in 2021.

There's a good chance that you'll see Travis Kelce out of uniform this week, though he won't be hanging out with George Kittle as he was here in this picture.

Recovering from shoulder surgery early in the year, Jeffery missed the season's first three games and showed little consistency in an erratic Eagles offense once he came back. He also dropped a pass on a would-be fourth-down conversion (while playing with a fractured rib) to seal a playoff loss to the Saints. That aside, it wasn't a terrible year. Jeffery averaged 9.2 YPT and 13.0 YPC on what was mostly a dink-and-dunk offense when Carson Wentz was under center. Jeffery made two catches of 40-plus yards, scored six TDs on 92 targets and dropped only four passes during the regular season. At 6-3, 218, and with 4.48 speed, Jeffery is a tough cover down the field. His wingspan is NBA-level, and he's used a fair amount near the goal line - seven targets inside the 10 in only 13 games. The Eagles let Golden Tate walk this offseason, but they replaced him with deep threat DeSean Jackson, likely changing how Jeffery will be used. Expect a lot of intermediate routes for Jeffery, with Nelson Agholor (and sometimes tight end Zach Ertz) in the slot. Ertz is probably Jeffery's biggest competition for targets, both between the 20s and in the red zone, but neither Jackson nor Agholor profile as No. 1 wideouts. Jeffery should be 100 percent recovered from the rib injury for OTAs, but he's always been injury prone, and at 29, that risk isn't likely to diminish. Still, a healthy Carson Wentz should give Jeffery a nice floor when he's on the field.
