Jeremy Maclin (hip pointer) did not practice Thursday.
It's Maclin's second straight day on the sidelines. If he can't at least put in a limited practice on Friday, he's headed for a game-time call at best. The Eagles and Ravens square off at 1 p.m. ET on Sunday. If Maclin can't play, rookie Damaris Johnson will start. In related news, Philadelphia has signed Mardy Gilyard and are currently carrying three wideouts on their practice squad.

Jeremy Maclin (hip) will not practice on Wednesday.
It's not a good sign, but coach Andy Reid was quick to note that Maclin has not been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Ravens. He did participate in the morning walkthrough and has a history of playing through injury drama. This remains a fluid, day-to-day situation.

Jeremy Maclin has been diagnosed with a right hip flexor, and is "pretty sore."
The Eagles are going to see how Maclin "feels the next few days," but his status is apparently in doubt for Week 2. Maclin has a history of being "pretty sore" going back to his days at Mizzou, but also has a history of playing through injury. It's not time to panic if you're an owner, but it would be prudent to devise a contingency plan. We'll know about Maclin's status by Wednesday.

Coach Andy Reid said he expects Jeremy Maclin to be "real sore" on Monday.
Maclin missed some plays in the first half due to a right hip injury and went to the locker room in the second half to get intravenous fluid in his legs. He still caught seven passes for 96 yards and a touchdown. Maclin may take it easy in practice this week, but he should be fine for the Week 2 matchup against the Ravens.

Jeremy Maclin caught seven passes for 96 yards with a touchdown in the Eagles' Week 1 win over the Browns.
Maclin was nicked up for much of the day. He missed some plays in the first half and went to the locker room to get an IV in the second half. Still, his difference-making talent was evident when on the field. Targeted a team-leading 14 times, he ate up Sheldon Brown and Buster Skrine while running a complete route tree. Maclin is clearly the wideout to own in Philadelphia.

Jeremy Maclin left Sunday's game against the Browns in the third quarter in order to get an IV.
Maclin was in and out of the lineup for the first 2 1/2 quarters due to a right hip issue. He still managed to put six catches for 85 yards and a touchdown on the board during his time on the field. Maclin should be able to return for the fourth quarter.

Jeremy Maclin will play in his first preseason game Monday night since August of 2010.
It's a reminder that Maclin is 100 percent for the first time in a couple of years. He missed all of last offseason with a mysterious illness, before reporting to 2011 training camp significantly underweight. Relying on pure skill and instinct, Maclin still ranked 31st among fantasy receivers -- a reasonable WR3. We like his chances of leaping into high-end WR2 value in 2012.

Jeremy Maclin practiced fully at Eagles camp Sunday after straining his hamstring in warmups ahead of Thursday's preseason opener.
He's good to go, and that's good to know. Maclin caught a ten-yard touchdown in Sunday's practice during red-zone drills. A recommended breakout target at Rotoworld headquarters, Maclin's current ADP is the middle of round five.

Eagles coach Andy Reid revealed following Thursday night's preseason opener that Jeremy Maclin is dealing with a strained hamstring.
Maclin suffered the injury in pre-game warmups and was a late scratch for Thursday's exhibition opener. The severity of the strain is unknown, but hamstrings are tricky and can cost players a significant amount of time if setbacks occur. Look for the Eagles to proceed cautiously with Maclin. They are counting on him to be their No. 1 receiver this season.

Jeremy Maclin is sitting out the Eagles' exhibition opener with a hamstring injury.
He was a late scratch. Maclin left Monday's practice with what the team termed "cramps." There's no indication that the injury is serious; teams often sit veterans in preseason games as a matter of precaution. We'll update Maclin's status as information becomes available.
