Will the Philadelphia Eagles keep Marcus Green in the building?

Despite standing at just five-foot-eight, Philadelphia Eagles‘ wide receiver Marcus Green didn’t fail to impress at Louisiana-Monroe during his collegiate career. He’s third in school history in receptions with 202, second in receiving yards with 2,698, and tied for first in receiving touchdowns with 23 in 48 career games.

That’s not all. He also added 492 rushing yards, posted a 9.6 yards-per-carry average, and tacked on another rushing touchdown on 51 career attempts. Add that to his 1,761 kick return yards and four touchdowns on 70 returns, his 280 punt return yards and yet another touchdown on 28 returns, and we’re discussing a performance that was good enough to earn him First-team All-Sun Belt honors in 2017 and in 2018.

Oh, and by the way, he runs 4.39-second forty-yard dash. No wonder the Atlanta Falcons took a chance on this guy in the sixth round last year. The question now is does he have any shot at making this Eagles roster? Let’s investigate.
