On August 19, the Philadelphia Eagles upgraded rookie wide receiver Makai Lemon to limited participation on their injury report ahead of joint practices with the New England Patriots. However, Jeff McLane reported that Lemon was not suited up for practice, creating confusion around his participation status. Lemon has been dealing with a hamstring injury that has limited his practice time throughout the offseason, causing him to miss the Eagles’ first preseason game and potentially the second as well against the Patriots on August 22. The Eagles hope to have him back for their final preseason game against the Cincinnati Bengals on August 28.
