2. How Will Eagles Defend Beckham?
Cornerback Bradley Fletcher is questionable for today's game with a hip injury that limited him in training all week. If Fletcher is unable to play, Nolan Carroll II will be in line to start opposite of Cary Williams. The Eagles' secondary has a tough task at hand trying to slow down Giants rookie receiver Odell Beckham, Jr. He leads all rookies in receiving yards (1,120) and touchdowns (11), and has racked up at least 100 yards receiving in six of his last eight games. Beckham works on both sides of the formation so the Eagles must account for where he is on every play.
