Philadelphia Eagles: Quez Watkins Released, Source Says
Eagles Make Roster Move
The Philadelphia Eagles have reportedly released wide receiver Quez Watkins, according to a source. Watkins, 26, had been with the Eagles since 2020, when he was drafted in the sixth round. He had a breakout season in 2022, catching 32 passes for 509 yards and four touchdowns.
Reason for Release
The reason for Watkins' release is unclear, but it may be related to the Eagles' recent acquisition of wide receiver A.J. Brown. Brown, who was acquired from the Tennessee Titans in a trade, is a Pro Bowl wide receiver and is expected to be the Eagles' top target in the passing game.
Watkins' release is a significant move for the Eagles, as he was a key contributor on offense last season. It will be interesting to see how the Eagles replace his production in the passing game.
