DeVonta Smith is back at practice with the Philadelphia Eagles after missing nearly two weeks due to a hamstring injury. His return comes as the Eagles prepare for joint practices with the New England Patriots on August 18 and 19. Smith was previously managed carefully by Philadelphia, who observed his rehabilitation and limited participation in the preseason game against the Baltimore Ravens. With Smith's return, the Eagles' offensive strategy can continue evolving under offensive coordinator Sean Mannion. Smith's presence is expected to be significant for quarterback Jalen Hurts as they prepare for preseason evaluations.
