Day-after review: Josh Huff was explosive
Through the first four weeks of the Eagles' season, wide receiver Josh Huff was basically invisible. He had just 4 catches for 39 yards, no touchdowns, and a long reception of just 13 yards. Additionally, because the Eagles faced of string of kickers who were excellent at banging the ball deep on kickoffs, Huff had just one kick return opportunity as the team's primary kick returner.October 12, 2015

Eagles keeping kicker Caleb Sturgis for now
When the Eagles lost Cody Parkey for the season with a groin injury, the Eagles held a kicking competition that was won by former Dolphins kicker Caleb Sturgis. In his first two games, Sturgis is 4/5 on field goal attempts, all from within 41 yards, with his miss coming on a 33 yard chip shot. He also missed his second extra point in as many games. Despite his struggles, Chip Kelly said the Eagles would not be working out any kickers to potentially replace Sturgis.October 11, 2015
