Washington Commanders wide receiver Marken Michel is grabbing everyone's attention at training camp this year. No matter who is under center at quarterback, the 29-year-old, who is the brother of running back Sony Michel, has made plays downfield. The team's top five wideouts appear to be set, so it remains to be seen if there is room on the final roster for Michel. He's a veteran of CFL and NFL practice squads and is among five players competing for a spot, but he still has his work cut out for him to climb past Dax Milne and Alex Erickson. Michel has played only three offensive snaps in his NFL career in 2020 with the Carolina Panthers.
Marken Michel Breaks Off a 75-Yard Touchdown on Thursday
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Marken Michel caught one pass on Thursday, scoring a 75-yard touchdown. Michel, the brother of Patriots running back Sony Michel, made his one play count. An undrafted rookie in 2016, Michel spent 2016-2018 in the CFL. He has some big play ability, but he's undersized and way in the back of the Philly depth chart. This will likely be his biggest contribution to the Eagles offense.
