Makai Lemon Back With First-Team Offense
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Makai Lemon (hamstring) was back to full participation Monday and took first-team reps, according to Dave Zangaro. That's a notable step after the rookie missed most of August with a hamstring injury suffered on Aug. 3. Lemon only returned to practice Thursday and was limited to individual work, so this is the first time he has been back in team drills since the setback. The first-team work itself isn't new. Philadelphia had Lemon running with the starters during OTAs and again when training camp opened before the injury interrupted his summer. The 20th overall pick is coming off a 79-catch, 1,156-yard, 11-touchdown season at USC. He still has some catching up to do after losing nearly three weeks of practice, but Monday puts him back in the mix for the role the Eagles were already giving him before he went down. UPDATE: The Philadelphia Inquirer's Jeff McLane reports that Lemon said he thinks he'll be ready for Week 1 against the division-rival Washington Commanders.
