Philadelphia Eagles first-round pick Makai Lemon did not practice Tuesday, watching the team's organized team activity from the sideline with a sleeve on his right leg. Expected to help replace the recently traded A.J. Brown, the rookie wide receiver is dealing with a soft-tissue hamstring injury revealed by teammate Quinyon Mitchell.

Eliot Shorr-Parks of 94WIP reports that the former USC star's injury is not considered serious. Lemon, who participated in OTAs last week, is not expected to return to the practice field until the start of training camp. biznow.biz
