The Eagles may use Jeremy Maclin on punt returns this season. New coach Chip Kelly has hinted DeSean Jackson will be the Eagles' primary return man, but Maclin will be in the mix. Maclin was an electrifying returner in college, but has fielded just 13 punts during his four-year career, zero of which came in 2012.

CSN Philly reports the Eagles aren't "actively" shopping Jeremy Maclin. Thanks in part to Colts owner Jim Irsay's Twitter ramblings, buzz has built that Maclin could be on the block, but there's no concrete evidence to support it. "Actively" implies the Eagles will at least listen to offers for Maclin, but there's every reason to believe he'll be back as new coach Chip Kelly looks to install his breakneck offense. Maclin is entering the final year of his rookie deal.

Jeremy Maclin does not expect a new contract before next season. The Eagles have a history of locking up players they developed before they hit free agency. The fact that they won't do so with Maclin speaks volumes. Despite plenty of raw talent, the 2009 first-round pick has never reached 1,000 yards in a season. However, he'll be a great bet to do so in 2013 as a highly-motivated player in Chip Kelly's up-tempo scheme.

Jeremy Maclin's 2013 salary jumped from $2.853 million to $3.203 million based on rookie-deal incentives. Maclin has yet to have a 1,000-yard receiving season since being the No. 19 overall pick out of Mizzou in the 2009 draft, but that's been due to being injury-prone and missing five games and parts of others over that span. Maclin has averaged a 64/863/6 line in his four seasons. Entering the final year of his deal, Maclin has said he doesn't expect the Eagles to approach him about an extension this offseason.

Jeremy Maclin does not anticipate the Eagles approaching him about a contract extension this offseason. Maclin, who turns 25 in May, will enter the final year of his rookie deal in 2013 with a $2.853 million base salary. He's been too prone to injury the past two seasons to expect a big offseason commitment. Maclin did say he's willing to bet on himself and play out the final season without an extension in place.

Jeremy Maclin caught four passes for 22 yards with a touchdown in the Eagles' Week 17 loss to the Giants. Maclin finishes his fourth NFL season with a disappointing 69 catches for 857 yards and seven touchdowns in 15 career games. But it's worth noting that in the five games Nick Foles started, Maclin averaged a very healthy 5.8 catches for 77.2 yards and scored two touchdowns. He's certainly not a dominant talent, but will be in a contract year and will likely be playing with Foles in 2013. Maclin has some bounce-back appeal.

Jeremy Maclin (knee) returned to practice on Friday and "should be good to go" for Sunday's game against the Giants. Maclin tweaked his knee in Wednesday's practice and sat out on Thursday, so it's good news that he returned so quickly. He'll be back catching passes from Michael Vick. Maclin checks in as Rotoworld's No. 25 receiver for Week 17. He needs 130 yards to set a new career-high in receiving at 965 yards.

Jeremy Maclin (knee) says he will practice on Friday. "I'll be out there [Friday]," Maclin told beat writer Les Bowen. The receiver tweaked his knee in Wednesday's practice and subsequently missed Thursday's go-around. The injury was never considered serious. If the knee responds well, Maclin should suit up for Week 17 against the Giants. He caught just one pass for seven yards against the G-Men in Week 4 while dealing with a hip injury.

Jeremy Maclin (knee) did not practice on Thursday. Maclin tweaked the knee during Wednesday's practice session. It doesn't seem to be a serious injury, but it certainly puts his Week 17 status in doubt. Maclin has battled injuries all season long, so it would be fitting for him to sit out the meaningless finale with a banged up knee. His status will be updated no later than Friday.

Jeremy Maclin was listed as limited in Wednesday's practice after tweaking his knee. Another day, another injury for Philadelphia's fourth-year receiver. According to beat writer Les Bowen, the severity is unclear. Although there's been nothing to suggest Maclin's injury is serious, even a minor ailment would have him in danger of missing Sunday's meaningless finale. His status will be updated no later than Thursday.
