Chip Kelly is the fifth QB during that 5-QB-throwing-at-the-same-time drill he likes to run. GJ Kinne is now at WR. #Eagles

Fantasy Impact:

The Eagles QB meeting room gets a bit roomier with this news. Kinne had been a long shot to make the team as a third QB, so this change of position is an attempt to prolong his stint with the Eagles and in the NFL as a whole. Despite the offensive creativity of Kelly, it would be beyond staggering if Kinne had any fantasy appeal as a receiver. His best bet is on special teams.
