John Hightower Lead Eagles In Receiving
2 years agoPhiladelphia Eagles wide receiver John Hightower caught five of six targets for 52 yards during Saturday's 48-10 preseason loss to the Miami Dolphins. The third-year receiver did not have the most targets, that honor when to teammate Deon Cain, but he did have the most receptions of the Eagles' backups. After not recording a target in the first preseason game, Hightower followed up a lackluster one-reception performance last week with a solid outing Saturday. Hightower's top competition for a roster spot seems to be Cain, and even after a solid game, he is likely on the outside looking in right now. The 26-year-old should resurface on the Eagles practice squad if he is cut and carries no fantasy relevance in redraft or dynasty formats.
