Covey excels in practice but roster bubble; value is punt return, not receiving.

Covey has caught more passes than anybody in the first few days of camp because quarterbacks love throwing to him—he's smart, knows the entire route tree, and catches everything. However, with only 13 catches in three seasons (six in one game against the Falcons in 2024), it's hard to imagine him having a role in the offense; he's the perfect practice player because he makes the quarterback look good. Covey is clearly on the roster bubble this summer and will make the 53-man roster only because of his punt return ability, where his 11.3-yard average ranks 9th among active NFL returners with at least 50 returns and 4th in Eagles history.
