Posts 10 catches in rookie season
Hightower caught 10 of his 29 targets for 167 yards across 13 games during the 2020 season.
Analysis: Since Hightower often functioned as a downfield threat for Philadelphia, he didn't draw many high-percentage targets as a rookie, though he didn't help himself by dropping three passes. Hightower did most of his damage in the first half of the season when many of the Eagles' receivers were banged up, but he became a healthy scratch for three of Philadelphia's last four games, with fellow rookie Quez Watkins passing him up on the depth chart. Hightower will almost certainly have to fight for a…read more

Healthy scratch again Sunday
Hightower (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's Week 16 tilt against the Cowboys, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Analysis: The rookie wideout has been a healthy scratch for three consecutive games, a status that was seemingly even more of a certainty this week with DeSean Jackson (ankle) being activated from injured reserve Saturday.

Inactive Week 15
Hightower (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.
Analysis: The rookie is a healthy scratch for the second straight game as the Eagles move forward with Quez Watkins and Travis Fulgham as their No. 4 and No. 5 receivers against Arizona.

Healthy scratch Week 14
Hightower (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's Week 14 tilt against the Saints.
Analysis: The rookie had played a combined 37 snaps over the previous two games, but with the Eagles receiving corps back to full health save for DeSean Jackson (IR, ankle), Hightower will be inactive for Jalen Hurts' first NFL start. The Boise State product's next opportunity to garner active status will come in a Week 15 road battle versus the Cardinals.

Fails to catch two targets
Hightower didn't catch his two targets during Sunday's 30-16 loss at Green Bay.
Analysis: The 24-year-old played 18 of 62 offensive snaps but was unable to make an impact in the passing game. Hightower has only one reception for one yard since Week 7.

Offensive role shrinking
Hightower wasn't targeted during Sunday's loss to the Giants.
Analysis: The 24-year-old played only one offensive snap and didn't have a reception for the second straight contest. Hightower is buried on the depth chart behind Travis Fulgham, Jalen Reagor, Greg Ward and Alshon Jeffery.

Shut out Sunday night
Hightower did not catch any of his three targets in Sunday's 23-9 win over the Cowboys.
Analysis: After catching a couple bombs over his past two games, Hightower got yet another deep target early in the contest but was unable to corral it this time. The last pass thrown his way was intercepted, so he had little chance to make an impact. Most importantly, the rookie fifth-rounder was only on the field for 10 snaps, a trend that will likely continue now that Jalen Reagor is healthy again.

Big fourth-quarter grab
Hightower secured one of two targets for 59 yards in the Eagles' 22-21 win over the Giants on Thursday night.
Analysis: As was the case in Week 6 against the Ravens, Hightower's one reception covered plenty of ground, and in Thursday's case, it came at a critical juncture of the contest. The rookie got loose down the right sideline for his 59-yard grab with Philadelphia down by 11 and 6:05 remaining, setting up the Eagles at the Giants' 14-yard line ahead of what would be one of two fourth-quarter touchdowns. Hightower has lived by the big play in the last two games, but he's still been unable to fully…read more

Makes most of one catch
Hightower brought in one of four targets for 50 yards in the Eagles' 30-28 loss so the Ravens on Sunday.
Analysis: The rookie checked in second in receiving yards on the Eagles despite making just a single catch. Hightower's yardage tally was a career high, but even with the Eagles missing multiple pass catchers over the last several games, the 2020 fifth-round pick has disappointingly failed to make much of an impact. HIghtower will look to carry the moment from his big grab into a Week 7 Thursday night battle against the Giants.

Targeted six times in loss
Hightower caught two of his six targets for 18 yards and a two-point conversion in Sunday's 38-29 loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: Hightower saw a season-high six targets but was able to reel in only two on the day. The rookie ended up tied with Zach Ertz as the second-most targeted Eagles pass catcher behind Travis Fulgham. However, with Alshon Jeffery (foot) and DeSean Jackson (hamstring) nearing returns, the Boise State product's opportunities could take a hit going forward.

Likely starting again
Hightower is one of four healthy wide receivers on the Eagles' roster ahead of Sunday's game in Pittsburgh, Jeff Skervsky of 6 ABC Philadelphia reports.
Analysis: J.J. Arcega-Whiteside is returning from a chest injury after missing one game, but DeSean Jackson (hamstring) and Alshon Jeffery (calf) will be out for at least one more week. Hightower played 86 and 81 percent of snaps in Philadelphia's past two games, catching four of five targets for 41 yards. It's possible the steady playing time eventually leads to more targets, but Zach Ertz, Greg Ward and Miles Sanders are the safer bets to see passes from Carson Wentz.

Clear of illness
Hightower (illness) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the 49ers.
Analysis: The 2020 fifth-round pick was absent from Thursday's practice due to an illness, but it won't impact his availability for Week 4. Hightower played 78 offensive snaps and caught two of three targets for 19 yards during last Sunday's tie with the Bengals, and he should see plenty of playing time again this week with Alshon Jeffery (foot) and DeSean Jackson (hamstring) sidelined and J.J. Arcega-Whiteside (calf) doubtful.

Comes down with illness
Hightower (illness) didn't participate in practice Thursday.
Analysis: After seeing just four targets and 34 offensive snaps in the Eagles' first two games of the season, Hightower increased the latter substantially this past Sunday versus the Bengals to 78 plays. That said, he was targeted just three times on his way to two catches for 19 yards. The Eagles' receiving corps has been hammered by injuries in 2020, with all of Alshon Jeffery (foot), DeSean Jackson (hamstring) and J.J. Arcega-Whiteside (calf) also absent Thursday. As a result, if Hightower can get…read more

Snags two passes in tie
Hightower caught two of three targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 23-23 tie against the Bengals.
Analysis: With Jalen Reagor (thumb) out and DeSean Jackson (hamstring) leaving the game early, Hightower led Eagles wide receivers with 78 of 91 offensive snaps (86 percent). Greg Ward wasn't far behind with 76 snaps. Jackson's injury is expected to be minor, but if he's forced to miss Week 4's matchup against the 49ers, Hightower and Ward should both handle increased duties against a defense that's without CB Richard Sherman (hamstring) and DE Nick Bosa (torn ACL).

Nabs first NFL catch
Hightower caught one of his four targets for a loss of two yards in Sunday's 27-17 loss to Washington
Analysis: The Boise State product was on the field for 27 snaps (40 percent) in his NFL debut. While that was one play fewer than what J.J. Arcega-Whiteside received, it was Hightower who was more involved in the offense with four passes thrown his way to Arcega-Whiteside's zero.

Could have early role
Hightower has looked good throughout training camp, potentially setting himself up for a role on offense if Jalen Reagor (shoulder) is out for an extended period, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Analysis: Early reports suggest Reagor will miss at least one or two games but should be back in the lineup by late September or early October. While J.J. Arcega-Whiteside and Greg Ward look like the favorites to get snaps alongside DeSean Jackson in three-wide formations to start the season, Hightower also has a shot at a role. If nothing else, the rookie fifth-round pick is on track for a roster spot, while sixth-rounder Quez Watkins (upper body) has been absent from recent practices and could be on…read more

Could replace Goodwin
Hightower and fellow rookies Jalen Reagor and Quez Watkins may have to pick up some of the slack after Marquise Goodwin opted out of the 2020 season, ESPN.com's Tim McManus reports.
Analysis: All four wideouts have two things in common: 1) they were acquired by Philadelphia in late April; 2) they're known for their speed above all else. Reagor, a first-round pick, is a roster lock and potential Week 1 starter, whereas Hightower (fifth round) and Watkins (sixth) figure to compete for depth roles. At first glance, it was difficult to see how both Hightower and Watkins would fit on the regular-season roster, but the Eagles may have room for the two similar rookies now that Goodwin is…read more
