STACKED’s take

Negative signalUsage

Lemon's 4 targets for -5 yards is historic poor performance for a WR debut.

Lemon had four targets for negative-five yards in Week 1 against Washington, making him the sixth NFL WR since 1977 with at least four targets for negative-five yards or less; the second WR since 1977 with negative-five or fewer yards in his NFL debut (following Brandon Banks in 2010); and the first first-round WR ever with minus-five or fewer yards in his NFL debut. The source notes the Eagles are not doing him favors with designed touches where the defense does not look fooled.
