The 2026 regular season is about three months away for the Philadelphia Eagles, but some big decisions still need to be made.
One question is what the Eagles will do at wide receiver. There are 12 receivers who are fighting for potentially five or six spots on the 53-man roster.
Training camp is going to provide fans with the most competitive position battle on the team, with the wide receivers. Here is a look at each receiver's odds to make the team.
Odds for each Eagles wide receiver to make 53-man roster
DeVonta Smith: 100%
Smith is the number one receiver on the team after A.J. Brown was traded. Of course, Smith is a lock to make the team and has bigger things to worry about than trying to make the Eagles.
Makai Lemon: 100%
The Eagles spent a first-round pick on Lemon, so this is another easy lock to make the roster. Lemon is more focused on developing into the team's future WR2, even if that doesn't necessarily happen in 2026.
Dontayvion Wicks: 100%
Philly traded for Wicks and gave him a one-year contract extension to stay on the roster through the 2027 season, while also having worked with new Eagles offensive coordinator Sean Mannion with the Green Bay Packers in the last two years. He is a lock to make the team and will most likely take Brown's spot on the outside when the season begins.
Marquise "Hollywood" Brown: 100%
Hollywood is too good not to be on the roster, so he feels like another lock. His speed gives the Eagles the deep threat they have not had very often in the Jalen Hurts era, so he should be just fine to make the team even if he is not a starter from Day 1.
Johnny Wilson: 50%
With Wilson healthy from his disappointing season-ending injury in training camp, this feels like the year where he could finally put it all together and be the lengthy, reliable target Eagles fans have waited for. If he plays like he did the week before his injury in training camp last year, his chances of making the roster should go up.
Britain Covey: 50%
After the struggles of the return game last year, Covey is the only reliable returner on the team. That will be his key to making the roster, but he even saw time on the practice squad last year, so it's a toss up as to whether he gets on the 53-man or if he bounces between that and the practice squad.
Darius Cooper: 40%
Honestly, if it wasn't for Wilson's season-ending injury, Cooper would have been a lock for the practice squad last year. Cooper is a solid receiver and was good on special teams, making him the training camp darling last season in Philly. There's a lot more competition this season, which means a practice squad spot feels more of a lock for Cooper than a 53-man roster spot.
Elijah Moore: 30%
Moore is a veteran and has been successful as a WR3 on other NFL teams, but it still feels like he's more likely to get cut. There are so many good receviers on this team and Moore is more locked in as having similar skill sets than the other. His lack of special teams returner experience could be what costs him a spot on the team.
Erik Ezukanma: 10%
Special teams could save Ezukanma, as he was a good returner in the UFL with the DC Defenders. Still, even if he is a solid receiver, he doesn't have a strong chance to make the roster.
Danny Gray: 10%
Gray went through this last year as he actually had a pretty solid training camp, but still couldn't make the roster despite being very fast. He should have another good showing at preseason, which could turn into a practice squad spot on the Eagles.
Quez Watkins: 10%
Watkins has been an Eagle on and off for years now, and while he is a great deep threat, speed is all that he really has. The chances of him making the roster feel very, very slim, with the practice squad maybe in his future.

Samori Toure: 9%
The only saving grace for Toure is that he knows Mannion's offense well from their time together with the Packers. Otherwise, Toure doesn't realistically have a great chance of making this roster.
