Philadelphia Eagles: Top free agent WRs still available to be signed
By David Esser
Larry Fitzgerald
2020 Team: Arizona Cardinals
One of those infamous “Philadelphia Eagles killers”, Larry Fitzgerald has established a reputation for himself as being one of the more *professional* wideouts in NFL history. He’s been steadily productive for the majority of his playing career, and likely still has some good reps left in him despite being 37 years of age.
One would typically assume that Fitz ends up back in Arizona for the 2021 season, but with A.J. Green recently signing there, the dominoes may be falling in a manner that sees Fitz land elsewhere this offseason.
If that’s the case, and Fitz isn’t generating a ton of interest from real contenders, taking a one-year deal to come in and groom some of the Eagles young wideouts could be in play.
Kenny Stills
2020 Team: Houston Texans/Buffalo Bills
Of all the players mentioned on this list, Kenny Stills arguably has the highest amount of upside to him.
Once a go-to option for the Saints and Dolphins, Stills really saw his career fall off once he landed in Houston during the 2019 offseason. His targets went way down, and some injury issues ultimately saw him released late in 2020. Stills quickly signed with the Bills following his release from Houston, however he never recorded a catch for them.
Believe it or not, Stills is only 28 years old. Not only would he provide some much needed experience to the Eagles WR room, but there’s also a half-decent chance that he could stick around past 2021 (should he play well).
Seeing as there’s been zero rumors regarding anyone reaching out to Stills this spring, the Eagles could probably snag him on a league minimum contract. Pretty hard to hate that idea.
