White was a wholesome scratch the previous two weeks. Certain looks like they may simply lower or commerce White sooner or later?
PARRIS CAMPBELL
The Eagles had been in want of extra broad receiver depth with Brown/DeVonta Smith each out and Britain Covey positioned on injured reserve. Elevating Campbell offers Jalen Hurts a veteran choice to work with. Campbell logged two targets in Week 3 and people resulted in two catches for 13 yards.

Additionally, it may demoralize the Bucs in the event that they’re getting beat by a receiver sporting a quantity within the 30s.)
