2023 Fantasy Outlook
Covey appeared in every game for the Eagles last season but almost exclusively played on special teams, seeing the field for just 19 total offensive snaps. He was the team's primary punt return man and finished second in kick returns but did not break 30 yards with any of his combined 43 returns. The second-year player is buried down the wideout depth chart this season and is unlikely to be a factor in the passing game. Read Past Outlooks

Has knee surgery
Covey underwent a procedure on his left knee this offseason, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
ANALYSIS
The punt returner noted it likely contributed to the nagging quad issue he dealt with during the season, per McLane. As a receiver, Covey caught four balls for 42 yards and no touchdowns in 16 games in 2023, though he did averaged the second-most yards per punt return (14.4) in the league. In 17 games in 2022 with the Eagles, Covey did not record a catch.
