The Philadelphia Eagles have been on a roller coaster ride this season, and while the team has had its share of ups and downs, one player has been a consistent bright spot. DaRon Bland, the Eagles’ star wide receiver, has been having an historic season, despite some recent struggles.
Bland has been a consistent presence in the Eagles’ offense since he was drafted in the fourth round of the 2019 NFL Draft. He quickly established himself as a reliable target for quarterback Carson Wentz, and his production has only gone up from there. Through 12 games this season, Bland has already set career highs in receptions (60) and receiving yards (859). He is also on pace to set a new career-high in touchdowns with seven.
Despite his impressive numbers, Bland has struggled in recent weeks. He has been held without a touchdown in three of the last four games, and he has only managed to catch five passes for 64 yards in that span. While his production has dipped, it is important to remember that he is still having an historic season.
The Eagles will be looking to get back on track when they face off against the Dallas Cowboys this week. Bland will be a key part of the offense, and if he can find his form again, he could be the difference maker for the Eagles. His ability to make plays downfield could be the spark that the Eagles need to get back on track.
DaRon Bland’s historic season continues despite recent struggles, and the Eagles will be counting on him to help them get back on track against the Cowboys this week. If he can find his form again, he could be the difference maker for the Eagles and help them get back into playoff contention.
