Lemon’s Rough NFL Debut | Philadelphia Eagles News

Makai Lemon’s NFL debut was a rocky one, catching just three of five targets for three yards, adding a tipped interception and a fumble — but he took accountability. Backup QB Tanner McKee’s shaky play and communication mishaps didn’t help, and veteran receivers Darius Cooper and Elijah Moore currently sit ahead of him on the depth chart. Still, the Eagles have been integrating Lemon with starters since his hamstring return, signaling faith in his potential. Early struggles are common for rookies — think Cooper DeJean — and patience may be key as Lemon looks to find his rhythm as the season unfolds.
