Eagles WR Jeremy Maclin to be 'full-go' in week 1

It was just three weeks ago when Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jeremy Maclin @jmac_18 was told he did not have cancer and then declared himself healthy after battling an unknown virus for months. He practiced for the first time all year just 11 days ago. That doesn't seem like much time to get back into football shape, but it's apparently enough for the third-year player out of Missouri. He told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch's Bernie Miklasz on Wednesday that be "full-go" and starting against the Rams on Sunday.

Fantasy Analysis:

This follows much of what we've heard about Maclin over the past few days. I have a hard time believing the coaches would send him out for 70+ snaps in his first game back, but I think Maclin is a nice fantasy start this weekend, even though some of my reasons as to why are sentimental. Everyone on the Eagles' knows how difficult this offseason has been for Maclin. What better way to welcome him back than with a touchdown in his home state of Missouri? I think Michael Vick and Andy Reid will try hard to make that happen.
