Vic Fangio is not a fan of Cooper DeJean returning punts, and he could get his wish for the star cornerback to be removed after Britain Covey returned to practice on Wednesday.
Covey had his practice window opened nine weeks after suffering a broken shoulder in the win over New Orleans.
The Eagles opened the 21-day practice window for WR Britain Covey.
They also signed DT Siaki Ika to the practice squad and released WR Kyle Philips from the practice squad.

Last season, Covey led the NFL with 417 punt return yards and was the only player with multiple punt returns of 50+ yards. Since 2022, Covey has the league’s second-most punt return yards (734).
DeJean handled punt return duties in Covey’s absence, averaging 11.8 yards per return.
