The Philadelphia Eagles add yet another offensive threat.

Almost every year, fans sound off about the Eagles’ lack of talent in the wide receiver room. Last year, they opted to take Jalen Reagor in the first round and while he showed flashes of potential, he was never able to be a consistent pass catcher in his rookie year.

With DeSean Jackson released from the team and Alshon Jeffery expected to follow him out town, the Eagles need some wide receiver help. That’s exactly what they’ll get here in wide receiver Terrace Marshall.

While Justin Jefferson and Ja’Marr Chase may have gotten all of the attention during LSU’s historic 2019 run, Marshall has quietly had an excellent couple of seasons in Baton Rouge. In his last two seasons, he recorded 94 catches for 23 touchdowns.

At six-foot-three, Marshall has tremendous size which makes him an elite red-zone target. He’s a physical player and a surprisingly nimble route runner who has made defenders look flat-out silly. The SEC standout receiver is technically sound and should be ready to contribute to the Eagles right away.
