Eli Stowers Back at Practice After Five-Week Injured Reserve Stint

Philadelphia Eagles rookie tight end Eli Stowers returned to practice Wednesday after missing five weeks on injured reserve due to a quad injury and earlier hamstring issues. The second-round pick has yet to make his NFL debut this season, remaining behind veterans Dallas Goedert and Zach Ertz on the depth chart. Stowers noted he feels better prepared and mentally stronger after using his rehab time to learn the system and refine his game alongside the veteran tight end room.
