Getting Brown, Smith, and Johnson back should help the Eagles offense get back on track against a Cleveland defense that blitzes the third-most in the NFL. With Johnson out, replacement Fred Johnson filled in and had a tough outing in the teams' loss in Tampa.

With Brown and Smith out, the offense struggled to move the ball through the air, putting up just 158 yards in the air in Tampa.

The team also got a pair of rookie wideouts, Ainias Smith and Johnny Wilson back on the practice field on Wednesday.

Smith had his 21-day practice window opened this week after missing the first four weeks of the season with an ankle injury suffered in the preseason finale against Minnesota. Overall, Smith caught eight passes for 43 yards on 11 targets this preseason
