The Philadelphia Eagles announced which jerseys they will wear in their Week 3 showdown with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
At 6’5″, 237 pounds with 4.49 speed, Dorial Green-Beckham could be a matchup nightmare for most defensive backs, especially if Carson Wentz can target him downfield and in the red zone. But Green-Beckham has yet to have a breakout game in the NFL. This week could be that game against the Steelers shaky secondary.

Pederson’s Eagles will face their first truly arduous opponent of the season […]
Despite another solid game from Carson Wentz and a decisive 29-14 win in Chicago, after two games, the Eagles offense still remains a work in progress.
