Alshon Jeffrey Out with Non-Covid Illness

Alshon Jeffery was seemingly ready to return from his foot injury, and boost the Eagles beleaguered WR corps  but is facing another setback. Fortunately it's not related to the foot issue, but there is word he will miss Sunday’s game with a non-COVID related illness. The expectation now is he returns in week 6, but the burden will again fall on Travis Fulgham, Greg Ward and John Hightower while the team waits for Jeffrey, Jackson and Reagor to make their return. Doug Pederson says that JJ Arcega-Whiteside still has a role in this offense, but he has not seen any targets so far.
