Won't need shoulder surgery
Covey said Thursday that he won't require surgery on the shoulder injury that forced his placement on injured reserve Tuesday, and he'll be out approximately six weeks, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
ANALYSIS
Covey clarified that he suffered two fractures in the shoulder in question, which he sustained this past Sunday at New Orleans, and a stint on IR means he must miss at least the next four games. Because the Eagles have a Week 5 bye, he may be able to return to action when first eligible Sunday, Nov. 3 against the Jaguars. In the meantime, Cooper DeJean is expected to handle punt returns for Philadelphia, while Jahan Dotson and Johnny Wilson are the healthy WRs on the active roster with A.J. Brown (hamstring) and DeVonta Smith (concussion) tending to health concerns.

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.
