Shortly after practice started, it was revealed that Smith is dealing with a hamstring injury. He joins the rookie Makai Lemon on the injury report
According to 94WIP’s Eliot Shorr-Parks, neither player’s setback is expected to be a long-term concern
“Devonta Smith and Makai Lemon are both not practicing today due to hamstring injuries,” Shorr-Parks wrote on X. “No long-term concern for either.”

This summer is a big one for Smith and the Eagles’ offense
After the team struck a trade with the New England Patriots to send AJ Brown on his way, the Eagles are entering the 2026 NFL season without the All-Pro wideout taking up most of the targets for the first time in four seasons
With Brown out of the picture, Smith becomes the clear-cut No. 1 target for Jalen Hurts. So far, the early reports out of Eagles camp are positive for Smith. While the offense has had its fair share of struggles, the veteran receiver has been a bright spot
Unfortunately, a hamstring injury could affect his availability moving forward. While the Eagles are putting it out there that the setback is not too concerning, it’s something the Eagles will be monitoring moving forward
