Ward caught one of his three targets for five yards in Sunday's 37-31 loss to the Dolphins.
EDGE Analysis
Ward saw a drop from seven targets the previous week with a healthier Eagles receiving corps. Still, he finished third among receivers with 29 snaps, two ahead of J.J. Arcega-Whiteside. The Eagles have another enticing matchup on deck with the Giants in Week 14.

Ward caught six of his seven targets for 40 yards in Sunday's loss to the Seahawks.
EDGE Analysis
Ward caught his first NFL pass in the first quarter and would go on to see five more targets in the first half before disappearing in the second. He also handled punt returns but lost three yards on his only opportunity. If Alshon Jeffery (ankle) and Nelson Agholor (knee) are back for Week 14, Ward will likely head back to the practice squad.

Ward is expected to see offensive snaps Sunday in the Eagles' game against the Seahawks, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
EDGE Analysis
With the Eagles down their top two wide receivers in Alshon Jeffery (ankle) and Nelson Agholor (knee), Jordan Matthews, J.J. Arcega-Whiteside, Mack Hollins and Ward remain as the lone healthy options at the position. Ward, who was called up from the practice squad in light of the injuries, previously made his NFL debut in Week 3, playing two offensive snaps. Though Ward's snap count should increase a little in his return to the roster, Zangaro suggests the Eagles will likely make "a ton" of use of 12 personnel (two tight ends) rather than relying heavily on a lackluster wideout corps.

Ward was promoted from the Eagles' practice squad Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Ward is expected to provide depth to an Eagles' receiving corps that sees all three of its projected starters -- Alshon Jeffery (ankle), Nelson Agholor (knee) and DeSean Jackson (abdomen) -- either on injured reserve or limited entering Sunday's Week 12 matchup.

The Eagles signed Ward to the practice squad Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Ward was waived by Philadelphia on Tuesday and now rejoins the team's practice squad. His brief stint on the active roster came with both Alshon Jeffery and DeSean Jackson (abdomen) injured. With Jeffery now back to full health, the Eagles are looking to add depth to the secondary.

Ward was waived by the Eagles on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Ward was promoted from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Week 3 while both Alshon Jeffery and DeSean Jackson (abdomen) sat out with health issues. With Jeffery back in action and starting cornerback Ronald Darby (hamstring) now injured, the Eagles are again releasing the 24-year-old wideout in favor of adding depth to the secondary. It seems likely that Philadelphia will try and slip Ward back onto the practice squad, if possible.

Ward has been promoted to the Eagles' 53-man roster.
EDGE Analysis
With DeSean Jackson (abdomen) out this week and Alshon Jeffery (calf) still iffy, Ward gives the team some added wideout depth for Sunday's game against the Lions. The team's top healthy options at the position are currently Nelson Agholor, Mack Hollins and J.J. Arcega-Whiteside.

Ward could be promoted to the active roster since Alshon Jeffery (calf) and DeSean Jackson (abdomen) could miss Sunday's game versus the Lions, Reuben Frank of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jackson almost certainly will sit out while Jeffery is trending in the same direction. Without those two, the Eagles only have three healthy receivers and haven't signed anyone else. Since Ward practices with the team daily, there's a good chance he'll be signed to the active roster by Sunday.

Ward was waived by the Eagles on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Ward has yet to appear on an active roster since going undrafted in 2017. He's been on the Eagles' practice squad in years past and may be in line for a practice squad slot in 2019 as well.

Ward has shined with his consistent play during the team's first five practices, Mike Kay of NJ.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ward is not likely to make the team but has '"rarely let down" his quarterbacks thus far in camp, according to Kay. While the former college quarterback has gotten work at all the receiver positions, he's been effective out of the slot and could earn a spot backing up Nelson Agholor there. Still, the Eagles are unlikely to keep more than five receivers, and Mack Hollins is currently viewed as the likely winner of the last opening, with Shelton Gibson and Charles Johnson also competing with Ward for it.
