Britain Covey Injury News & Updates
Aug 28, 2025
Returns to Philadelphia
The Eagles signed Covey to the practice squad Thursday, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Covey spent the last three seasons with the Eagles, and he has returned to Philadelphia as a member of the practice squad after failing to make the Rams' 53-man roster at the end of training camp. Covey appeared in five regular-season games for the Eagles in 2024 and finished with seven catches (on eight targets) for 34 yards.
Aug 26, 2025
Let go by Rams
The Rams waived Covey on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Covey signed a one-year deal with the Rams in March after spending his first three NFL seasons with the Eagles. He finished the preseason with nine catches (on 14 targets) for 76 yards while adding 16 return yards on two punts, but it wasn't enough for the Utah product to crack the Rams' 53-man roster. Covey will have the opportunity to explore his options if he clears waivers, and that includes staying in Los Angeles as a member of the Rams' practice squad.
Aug 24, 2025
Four catches in preseason finale
Covey secured four of six targets for 32 yards and returned one punt for 14 yards during Saturday's 19-17 preseason loss to the Browns.
ANALYSIS
The veteran's final appearance in the preseason started off with quarterback Dresser Winn's first target of the game, which fell incomplete. More notable for Covey's chances of making the final 53-man roster was who wasn't out on the field Saturday, as Xavier Smith and Konata Mumpfield joined Puka Nacua, Davante Adams, Tutu Atwell and Jordan Whittington as players who head coach Sean McVay chose to rest. Given Covey's rather quiet preseason, his most likely outcome is a spot on the Rams' practice squad, unless the team chooses to keep seven wideouts on their initial 53-man roster.
Aug 18, 2025
Underwhelming in victory
Covey caught three of six targets for 13 yards and returned one punt for two yards during Saturday's 23-22 preseason victory against the Chargers.
ANALYSIS
On a day where many of the Rams' wideouts battling to make the final cut had excellent games, Covey struggled to get anything going. Xavier Smith, Covey's primary competition for a roster spot, secured all four of his targets for 49 yards and protected his spot as the sixth (and likely final) wideout on the Rams' potential 53-man roster. Covey will get one last chance to make an impression for his new team against the Browns in next week's preseason finale for the Rams.
Aug 10, 2025
Makes most of two touches
Covey caught both of his targets for 31 yards during Saturday's 31-21 preseason win versus the Cowboys.
ANALYSIS
The former Eagles wideout notched a nifty 26-yard gain on a deep pass from Stetson Bennett, but didn't get an opportunity to showcase his skills as a return man, which was his primary role back in Philadelphia. Xavier Smith is his primary competition for that role with the Rams, and his incumbent status likely has the edge over Covey so far to retain the role. The most likely outcome for Covey is a spot on the practice squad and a role if injuries befall the wide receiver corps.
May 5, 2025
Gets one-year deal with Rams
Los Angeles signed Covey (neck) to a one-year contract Monday.
ANALYSIS
Covey spent last year with the Eagles, securing seven of eight targets for 34 yards across his five regular-season appearances. A neck injury sustained Week 13 forced Covey to land on IR, and though he resumed practicing in full late during the playoffs, he wasn't able to gain clearance in time to suit up for Philadelphia's win over the Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX. Now healthy, Covey will compete for an opportunity to earn a depth role with the Rams.
Feb 7, 2025
Ruled out for Super Bowl
Covey (neck), who remains on IR, practiced in full Friday and has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX.
ANALYSIS
Covey won't be activated from IR in time to contribute for the Super Bowl, despite his evident health at practice. In addition to his efforts as a punt returner, the 27-year-old logged seven catches for 34 yards on eight targets across his five regular-season appearances.
Feb 5, 2025
Logs full practice Wednesday
Covey (neck) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Covey hasn't played since Week 13 due to a neck injury, which was severe enough for him to be placed on injured reserve in late December. If he can log full practices all week, then Covey would have a shot at being activated from IR ahead of Super Bowl LIX against the Chiefs on Sunday. The 27-year-old wideout caught seven passes (on eight targets) for 34 yards across five regular-season games.
Jan 31, 2025
Listed as questionable
Covey (neck) is listed as questionable for Super Bowl LIX on Sunday, Feb. 9 against the Chiefs.
ANALYSIS
Covey was limited in practice all week and remains on injured reserve. The return man and depth receiver hasn't played since Week 13 and has seen action on just 50 offensive snaps all season. Covey will have another week of practice to get ready for the Super Bowl.
Jan 24, 2025
Ruled out to face Washington
Covey (neck), who remains on IR, was limited in practice Friday and is ruled out for Sunday's NFC Championship game against the Commanders.
ANALYSIS
Covey logged three consecutive 'limited' practice sessions this week, but he won't be activated to the 53-man roster in time for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against Washington. His next chance to return will arrive if Philadelphia advances to the Super Bowl via a win over the Commanders.
Jan 22, 2025
Practice window opens
The Eagles announced Wednesday that Covey (neck) has been designated for return from IR, which opens his 21-day practice window, Andrew DiCecco of InsideTheBirds.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Covey is being designated to return to practice at his earliest date of eligibility, which may bode well for his chances for gaining clearance to play in time for Sunday's home NFC Championship Game against the Commanders. Once he's gained full medical clearance and retakes the field, the third-year wideout will contribute in a depth role on offense, as well as taking work in the return game.
Dec 28, 2024
Placed on IR due to neck injury
The Eagles placed Covey (neck) on injured reserve Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Covey has been nursing a neck injury that he picked up against the Ravens in Week 13. That has forced him to be sidelined for the Eagles' last three games, and he has already been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Cowboys. Covey's placement on IR means his regular season is over, but he could return in the postseason if the Eagles make it to the NFC Championship Game. Covey will finish the 2024 regular season with seven catches (on eight targets) for 34 yards while adding 46 punt return yards in five games.
Dec 27, 2024
Won't play in Week 17
Covey (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Cowboys.
ANALYSIS
Covey has been dealing with a neck issue since Dec. 1, when he was injured in a win over the Ravens. The third-year wideout didn't play in any of the Eagles' subsequent three games, but it appeared he could return this week after being deemed a full practice participant Wednesday and Thursday. However, Covey didn't practice Friday, so he may have suffered a setback. Kenneth Gainwell will likely continue to handle kick returns with Covey out of action.
Dec 25, 2024
Estimated as full participant
Covey (neck) was estimated as a full participant in Philadelphia's practice report Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Covey has missed the past two games due to a neck injury but is seemingly healthy again. He will likely resume his duties as the team's punt returner and as a depth receiver during Sunday's rivalry matchup versus the Cowboys.
Dec 20, 2024
Ruled out for Week 16
Covey (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Commanders.
ANALYSIS
Covey practiced in full all week but was still ruled out. He's simply fallen down the depth chart as the Eagles' sixth receiver behind A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, Jahan Dotson, Johnny Wilson and Ainias Smith.
Dec 18, 2024
Logs full practice Wednesday
Covey (neck) was listed as a full practice participant on Wednesday's estimated injury report.
ANALYSIS
Covey has been sidelined for the Eagles' last two games due to a neck injury. While he didn't end up playing in the Eagles' Week 15 win over the Steelers despite logging a full practice, it appears he is on track to play against the Commanders on Sunday.
Dec 13, 2024
Out for Week 15
Covey (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Steelers.
ANALYSIS
Covey upgraded to a full practice Thursday, but he's still not going to play in Week 15. Cooper DeJean is a candidate to return punts against Pittsburgh, as he did last Sunday versus Carolina.
Dec 12, 2024
Full participant Thursday
Covey (neck) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
ANALYSIS
The wide receiver and punt returner was a limited participant Wednesday. Covey suffered the injury in Week 13 against the Ravens and missed the Eagles' Week 14 clash with the Panthers. The third-year pro should resume his punt returning duties Sunday against the Steelers.
Dec 11, 2024
Opens week with limited practice
Covey (neck) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Covey hurt his neck Week 13 against Baltimore and missed this past Sunday's victory versus Carolina. By beginning this week with a limited practice session, Covey could potentially return to action Sunday against Pittsburgh. If Covey can play, his impact would likely be felt mostly on special teams, as he has worked as Philadelphia's lead punt returner while seeing limited snaps on offense.
Dec 6, 2024
Won't suit up Week 14
Covey (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Covey logged limited practices Thursday and Friday, but he'll sit out Sunday. His next chance to play will be Week 15 against the Steelers. Cooper DeJean, Jahan Dotson and Ainias Smith are all candidates to return punts in Covey's absence.
Dec 5, 2024
Upgraded to limited Thursday
Covey (neck) was listed as a limited practice participant Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Covey didn't participate in Wednesday's walkthrough due to a neck injury he suffered against the Ravens this past Sunday. His ability to practice Thursday is a sign that he is progressing in his recovery, though he would have to log a full practice Friday in order to avoid an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against Carolina.
Dec 4, 2024
Estimated as DNP
Covey (neck) was listed as a DNP on Wednesday's estimated injury report.
ANALYSIS
Covey suffered a neck injury during a punt return in the second half of the Eagles' 24-19 win over the Ravens this past Sunday. Although the Eagles' session Wednesday was a walkthrough, his DNP still doesn't bode well for his chances of playing against the Panthers on Sunday. Covey will have to return to practice over the next two days in order to have a chance at suiting up for Week 14.
Dec 1, 2024
Suffers neck injury in win
Covey suffered a neck injury during Sunday's 24-19 win over the Ravens, Olivia Reiner of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Covey sustained the injury on a punt return in the second half, finishing his day with four returns for 30 yards in the victory. The 27-year-old's status at practice this week will be worth monitoring ahead of the team's Week 14 matchup with the Panthers.
Nov 23, 2024
Reinstated from injured reserve
The Eagles activated Covey (shoulder) from injured reserve Saturday, and he carries no injury designation into Sunday's game against the Rams.
ANALYSIS
Covey suffered a shoulder injury in Week 3 against the Saints, which forced him to be sidelined for the Eagles' last seven games. The 27-year-old wideout was a full participant in practice all week, and he's progressed through his injury enough to play Sunday. Covey has logged seven catches on as many targets for 34 yards in three regular-season games.
Nov 22, 2024
Could return in Week 12
Covey (shoulder) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Rams.
ANALYSIS
Covey has missed the Eagles' last seven games due to a shoulder injury sustained the Week 3 win over the Saints. The Utah product practiced in full all week and appears to be trending toward playing in Sunday's contest, but he must still be activated to Philadelphia's active roster in order to suit up. If Covey can play in Week 12, he'll likely assume the Eagle's top punt return duties and serve as a depth piece in their wide receiver room.
Nov 20, 2024
Logs full practice in return
Covey (shoulder) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
ANALYSIS
The Eagles designated Covey to return from injured reserve Wednesday, and he opened the week strong as a full participant for Philadelphia's first official practice. If he's able practice without limitations over the next two days, Covey could be activated off IR and be available for Sunday's game against the Rams. Over the first three games of the regular season, he logged seven catches on as many targets for 34 yards.
Nov 20, 2024
Returning to practice
Covey (shoulder) has been designated to return from injured reserve and will practice Wednesday, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Covey has been sidelined since Week 3 by the injury, but his return to the field is officially in motion. He'll now have a 21-day window to practice with the team before he needs to be added to the active roster, but he could play as soon as Sunday against the Rams if he's healthy enough to do so.
Nov 19, 2024
Still nursing shoulder issue
Covey (shoulder) has not been designated to return to practice from the injured reserve list after Week 11, Martin Frank of The Delaware News Journal reports.
ANALYSIS
Covey has missed the Eagles' last seven games due to a broken shoulder he suffered in Week 3 at New Orleans, and it appears he'll probably have to sit out at least one more as Week 12 approaches. It also looks like he may have a slightly different role awaiting him when he returns, as special teams coordinator Michael Clay said Tuesday that rookie second-rounder Cooper DeJean would retain a spot in Philadelphia's punt-return unit even after Covey becomes available again.
Sep 26, 2024
Won't need shoulder surgery
Covey said Thursday that he won't require surgery on the shoulder injury that forced his placement on injured reserve Tuesday, and he'll be out approximately six weeks, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
Covey clarified that he suffered two fractures in the shoulder in question, which he sustained this past Sunday at New Orleans, and a stint on IR means he must miss at least the next four games. Because the Eagles have a Week 5 bye, he may be able to return to action when first eligible Sunday, Nov. 3 against the Jaguars. In the meantime, Cooper DeJean is expected to handle punt returns for Philadelphia, while Jahan Dotson and Johnny Wilson are the healthy WRs on the active roster with A.J. Brown (hamstring) and DeVonta Smith (concussion) tending to health concerns.
Sep 24, 2024
Heads to IR
The Eagles placed Covey (shoulder) on injured reserve Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Though the Eagles haven't provided a precise diagnosis of the shoulder injury Covey sustained in Sunday's 15-12 win over the Saints, his move to IR ensures that he'll miss at least the next four games. Philadelphia signed tight end Jack Stoll to the 53-man roster in a corresponding move, while Cooper DeJean is likely in line to serve as the Eagles' punt returner in Covey's absence.
Sep 22, 2024
Arm in sling after Week 3 win
Covey (shoulder) had his arm in a sling after Sunday's 15-12 win over the Saints, Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Covey and DeVonta Smith (concussion) both exited the game, and the Eagles were already without wide receiver A.J. Brown (hamstring). While Covey isn't nearly as integral to the offense as Brown or Smith, Covey also fills an important special teams role as Philadelphia's punt returner. Cooper DeJean filled in as the punt returner after Covey's exit and would likely retain that role if the wide receiver is unable to suit up against the Buccaneers in Week 4.
Sep 22, 2024
Ruled out Sunday
Covey (shoulder) won't return to Sunday's game in New Orleans, Olivia Reiner of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Covey thus will finish Week 3 with one catch (on one target) for 11 yards. With A.J. Brown (hamstring) inactive, DeVonta Smith, Jahan Dotson, Johnny Wilson and Parris Campbell are the current healthy wide receivers on the Eagles' active roster.
Sep 22, 2024
Injures shoulder Sunday
Covey suffered a shoulder injury during Sunday's game at New Orleans.
ANALYSIS
Covey took advantage of A.J. Brown's (hamstring) absence Week 2 against the Falcons, hauling in all six of his targets for 23 yards. However, he was targeted only once (an 11-yard catch) before exiting Sunday in the second quarter. Currently, DeVonta Smith, Jahan Dotson, Johnny Wilson and Parris Campbell are the healthy wide receivers on the Eagles' active roster.
Sep 18, 2024
Reels in six grabs
Covey reeled in all six of his targets for 23 yards in Monday's 22-21 loss to the Falcons.
ANALYSIS
With A.J. Brown (hamstring) sidelined Monday, Covey saw an increase in his playing time and target share in Week 2. The third-year wideout's six targets and six catches were second only to Devonta Smith among Philadelphia's pass catchers. Operating as the Eagles' fourth wide receiver on a team flush with playmakers, Covey will more often than not see limited opportunities in Philadelphia's offense, especially when Brown returns from his injury. Nonetheless, the 27-year-old will have another chance to take a step forward when the Eagles visit the Saints in Week 3.
May 31, 2024
Taking part in OTAs
Covey (knee) participated in the Eagles' offseason practice Thursday, per Glenn Erby of USA Today.
ANALYSIS
Covey had knee surgery in the offseason but appears to have recovered well given his ability to participate in the practice session. The 27-year-old is slated to work as Philadelphia's primary punt/kick return in 2024 and should also see some limited work as a receiver in the team's passing game.
Feb 8, 2024
Had knee surgery
Covey "had his left knee scoped a few weeks back," Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
The punt returner "said it's probably why he had a nagging quad issue during the season," per McLane. As a receiver, Covey caught four balls for 42 yards and no touchdowns in 2023. In 17 games in 2022 with the Eagles, Covey did not record a catch.
Jan 19, 2024
Almost exclusively on special teams
Covey appeared in 16 regular-season games but was almost exclusively used as a kick and punt returner, catching just four passes for 42 yards.
ANALYSIS
Covey played all 17 games in 2022 without being targeted a single time, so his six targets in 2023 represent a step forward. Five of those targets came in Week 18, with the Eagles resting starters for part of the game, so there's little reason to believe Covey is a threat for even double-digit receptions next season.
Dec 6, 2023
Stuck in special-teams role
Covey played all three of his snaps on special teams in Sunday's 42-19 loss to the 49ers.
ANALYSIS
Covey's standing as the team's top punt returner rather than his contributions as a receiver have enabled him to be active for all 12 of the Eagles' games this season. The Utah product has yet to draw a target over 39 career snaps on offense through 29 games over his first two seasons in the league.
Oct 7, 2023
Good to go Sunday
Covey (concussion) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Rams.
ANALYSIS
Covey left Philadelphia's Week 4 win over Washington late with a head injury, but he's since cleared concussion protocol and has no injury designation this coming Sunday. The Utah product is the Eagles' main punt returner, tallying 151 return yards on nine chances this season.
Oct 6, 2023
Gets questionable tag for Week 5
Covey (concussion) is listed as questionable to play against the Rams on Sunday, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Covey entered concussion protocol Monday after suffering a head injury late in Sunday's win over Washington. He didn't practice Wednesday but promisingly followed a limited session Thursday with a full practice Friday. That seems to give Covey a good chance of playing Sunday -- if he's able to do so, he'll likely continue to feature as the Eagles' primary punt returner.
Oct 5, 2023
Manages limited practice Thursday
Covey (concussion) was a limited participant at practice Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Covey missed practice entirely Wednesday, so his limited participation Thursday represents a positive development. He still probably needs to practice fully Friday to avoid an injury designation headed into the weekend, though.
Oct 4, 2023
Misses practice Wednesday
Covey (concussion) was a non-participant at the Eagles' practice Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Covey's absence comes as no surprise considering he entered concussion protocols Monday. The return-specialist faces an uphill battle to be able to play Sunday against the Rams.
Oct 2, 2023
Enters protocols
Covey suffered a head injury late in Sunday's win over the Commanders and has entered the league's concussion protocols, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Covey will need to clear the league's five-step process to be able to suit up Week 5 against the Rams, which will likely be a tall task for the Utah product. Assuming he is unable to play, Boston Scott and Olamide Zaccheaus will be candidates to handle return duties in Week 5.
Sep 28, 2023
Upgraded to full Thursday
Covey (hamstring) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
ANALYSIS
It's an upgrade after Covey was limited Wednesday. The Eagles' return man, Covey has six punt returns for 113 yards, including a long gain of 52 yards.
Sep 27, 2023
Dealing with hamstring issue
Covey was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's practice estimate due to a hamstring injury.
ANALYSIS
Through three games, Covey is averaging a robust 18.8 yards on his six punt returns while also recording one 30-yard kick return. Now, though, he's tending to a hamstring issue that could sap some of his explosiveness in the short term.
Sep 20, 2023
Joins 53-man roster
Covey signed with the team's active roster Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Covey was elevated for each of the team's first two games of the season, and this move will make him an official member of the active roster again. The second-year pro should operate as a depth option at receiver and continue to work as a return man on special teams.
Sep 15, 2023
Goes back to practice squad
Covey reverted to Philadelphia's practice squad Friday.
ANALYSIS
After again playing exclusively on special teams in Week 2, Covey will head back to the practice squad. The Eagles will be able to elevate him once more this season before they'd have to sign him to the active roster to make him available.
Sep 14, 2023
Gets elevation to 53-man roster
Philadelphia elevated Covey from its practice squad to the 53-man roster ahead of its game versus Minnesota on Thursday.
ANALYSIS
After suiting up and playing exclusively on special teams in Week 1, Covey will once again be available for the Eagles in Week 2. He is a good candidate to return punts, but it's not terribly likely he will see many offensive snaps unless Philadelphia jumps out to an insurmountable lead early.
Sep 11, 2023
Back to practice squad
Covey reverted to the Eagles' practice squad Monday.
ANALYSIS
Covey logged five snaps on special teams including two punt returns for a combined 30 yards in the team's 25-20 win over the Patriots in Week 1. The wide receiver will now wait for his next chance to be elevated to the active roster.
Sep 9, 2023
Added to active roster
Covey was elevated to the Eagles' active roster Saturday.
ANALYSIS
The 26-year-old was waived by Philadelphia on Aug. 29 before agreeing to join their practice squad one day later. Covey will add depth to the Eagles' special teams unit, as he was primarily used returning punts and kicks last year. The Utah product appeared in 16 games for the Eagles during his rookie campaign, racking up 514 total return yards.
Aug 30, 2023
Back with Philadelphia
Covey is signing with the Eagles' practice squad Wednesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Covey was waived by the Eagles on Tuesday but will rejoin the organization a day later. He appeared in 17 games with Philadelphia last year and could join the 53-man roster at some point if the team's receivers deal with injuries.
Aug 29, 2023
Gets cut loose
Covey was waived by the Eagles on Tuesday, John Clark reports.
ANALYSIS
Covey's exit comes as a bit of a surprise after appearing in 17 games with the team last season. He was in the mix for a depth receiver role as well as earning the team return duties. The Utah product should be considered a likely candidate for the practice squad and possibly still someone who could find his way to the 53-man roster.
Aug 27, 2023
Returns to practice
Covey (hamstring) is practicing Sunday, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
Covey's hamstring issue has held him back for a couple of weeks now. His return comes at a good time with final cuts due Tuesday as teams set their 53-man rosters. The Utah product operated as the team's return man last season, and he'll continue to work to earn that role again in 2023.
Aug 12, 2023
Unavailable Saturday
Covey was out with a hamstring injury during Saturday's 20-19 loss to the Ravens, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Covey was on the sidelines Saturday and after the game head coach Nick Sirianni explained that it was due to a hamstring issue. More information on his status will likely be provided later this week. Once healthy, the wide receiver is expected to be a top option to return kickoffs and punts this season.
Oct 1, 2022
Signed to active roster
Covey was signed to the Eagles' active roster Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Covey has yet to log an offensive snap, but he has served as one of the Eagles' primary punt returners through three games this season. He has tallied 61 total yards on 10 returns in that role.
Sep 26, 2022
Returns to practice squad
Covey reverted to the Eagles' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
ANALYSIS
Covey once again served as Philadelphia's primary punt returner while playing eight special-teams snaps during Sunday's win, netting 34 yards on five returns and two fair catches. The rookie out of Utah also muffed one of his returns but quickly recovered the fumble for no gain. After being elevated from the practice squad in each of the past three weeks, Covey will require a spot on the Eagles' active roster in order to continue returning punts for the team this season.
Sep 24, 2022
Will be active at Washington
Philadelphia elevated Covey from its practice squad Saturday for Week 3, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
This will be the third consecutive week Covey is active for the Eagles and the last time he's eligible to be elevated from the practice squad before he would have to be signed to the team's active roster in order to play. The 25-year-old wideout has played exclusively on special teams through two games this season.
Sep 20, 2022
Back to practice squad
Covey reverted to the Eagles' practice squad Tuesday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
ANALYSIS
Covey has been called up to the active roster for each of the team's first two games. The rookie has operated as the team's punt returner, and totaled 14 yards on three returns in their 24-7 win over the Vikings on Monday. Covey can be elevated one more time before he'll need to be signed to the active roster.
Sep 19, 2022
Moved up to active roster
Covey was elevated from the Eagles' practice squad ahead on Monday night's game against the Vikings.
ANALYSIS
Covey will get the move up from Philadelphia's practice squad for the second straight week after recording 13 punt-return yards over his four special-teams snaps in Week 1. The rookie out of Utah did not line up for a single offensive play last week, but he figures to once again serve as one of the Eagles' top return specialists alongside Quez Watkins against Minnesota.
Sep 12, 2022
Lands back on practice squad
Covey reverted to the Eagles' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
ANALYSIS
Covey returned two punts for 13 total yards after being elevated from Philadelphia's practice squad ahead of Sunday's season opener against Detroit. The rookie wideout did not make any further impact outside of his four special-teams snaps. Covey is now eligible for two more elevations from the Eagles' practice squad moving forward this season.
Sep 10, 2022
Joins active roster
The Eagles have elevated Covey to their 53-man roster ahead of Sunday's Week 1 matchup with the Lions.
ANALYSIS
Covey failed to make it through Philly's final roster cuts and subsequently reverted to the practice squad. Now, the undrafted rookie will make his NFL debut as the team's No. 5 wide receiver.
Sep 1, 2022
Re-joins Philly on practice squad
Covey signed with the Eagles' practice squad Wednesday, Sage Hurley of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Covey was waived as part of Philadelphia's final roster cuts Tuesday after recovering from a hand injury that side temporarily sidelined him this preseason. The rookie wideout and return specialist now will look to work his way onto the Eagles' active roster heading into the regular season.
Aug 30, 2022
Let go by Eagles
The Eagles waived Covey on Tuesday, Chris McPherson of the Eagles' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Covey sustained a hand injury during the Eagles' preseason opener but recovered in time for the next exhibition game. He'll now be forced to seek out other opportunities prior to the regular season.
Aug 21, 2022
Returns to field
Covey is playing in the Eagles' preseason game against the Browns on Sunday, Josh Tolentino of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
Covey injured his hand during the Eagles' preseason loss to the Jets last Friday. However, he was able to take part in warmups and will play Sunday against Cleveland.
Aug 14, 2022
Dealing with injury
Covey will be limited in practice Sunday with a sprained hand, Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
Covey suffered the injury in the Eagles' preseason loss to the Jets on Friday. The undrafted rookie out of Utah has impressed thus far and was even earning some first-team reps in camp. Depending on how long he is out, the unfortunate injury could derail his momentum toward making the roster.
