DeVonta Smith offers strong endorsements of Dontayvion Wicks, Elijah Moore
DeVonta Smith has been paying attention to the progress being made around him, and here's what he had to say about two of his Eagles teammates.
DeVonta Smith, a former Heisman Trophy winner, has been recovering from a hamstring injury during Philadelphia Eagles training camp. During a recent joint practice with the New England Patriots, Smith made a limited return to the field. His absence has led to increased opportunities for other receivers, such as Dontayvion Wicks and Elijah Moore.
After the practice, Smith spoke positively about both players. He praised Wicks for his one-on-one wins, fight, blocking, and leadership qualities. Smith also expressed his continued admiration for Elijah Moore, who was a First-Team All-SEC honoree, Consensus All-American, and Conerly Trophy winner at Ole Miss. Moore's situation is more uncertain, as he is competing for a final receiver position alongside Smith, Marquise Brown, Marquise Brown, Makai Lemon, and Darius Cooper.
