Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver
Greg Ward (leg) was forced to exit early during Saturday's preseason matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. The 28-year-old was taken out of the game due to what is being called leg cramps. He walked off the field under his own power and this is believed to be a minor injury. Before exiting, Ward hauled in all five of his targets for 53 yards during Saturday's contest. Ward is looking to make the roster as a depth option behind
A.J. Brown and
DeVonta Smith. This performance should certainly help his case, assuming he avoided major injury.

The Philadelphia Eagles signed wide receivers
Greg Ward,
Devon Allen and
Tyrie Cleveland, cornerback Mario Goodrich, defensive ends Tarron Jackson and Matt Leo, offensive tackles Fred Johnson and Roderick Johnson, offensive guards Sua Opeta and Tyrese Robinson, linebacker Davion Taylor and defensive tackle Marvin Wilson to Reserve/Futures deals. Ward was initially signed by the Eagles as a rookie free agent in 2017. He began the 2022 campaign on Injured Reserve before being added to the practice squad in October. Ward was elevated to the active roster for the Super Bowl, but he didn't play at all and didn't see the field once in 2022. The 27-year-old has 88 receptions for 768 yards and 10 touchdowns in 40 games for the Eagles, but he's played only three seasons in the NFL.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver
Greg Ward (back) injured his back in Sunday's wild-card game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and has been ruled out for the rest of the game. Ward didn't see a single target in the game before leaving, and with the Eagles down big and likely to lose to Tampa, Ward will finish his 2021 season with just seven receptions on 11 targets for 95 yards and three touchdowns in 18 games played. In a run-first offense, Ward didn't have much of a chance to put up numbers behind receivers
DeVonta Smith,
Quez Watkins and
Jalen Reagor. In his three NFL seasons, Ward has produced 88 catches for 768 yards and 10 touchdowns on 130 targets over 40 games played.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver
Greg Ward (back) was limited in the team's first practice of the week on Wednesday. Barring a setback later this week, Ward should be good to go to play on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the wild-card round of the postseason. The 26-year-old was targeted just 11 times all season in 17 games, catching seven of those targets for 95 yards and three touchdowns. Although he ranks second among Philly receivers with his three TDs, he's been sparingly used as the No. 4 pass-catcher for a run-first Eagles offense. Ward, who averaged 0.4 catches and 5.6 yards per game this year, will be a poor DFS option despite his basement price on DraftKings ($3,000) at his position.
