Impact Eager was limited exclusively to the special teams unit against Southeastern Louisiana in Week 1, as the wideout was protecting a hand injury that forced him to miss spring practices.

Once he feels as though his hand is at 100 percent, he will look to become a reliable target in the passing attack.
