From the article

Lemon was targeted four times, catching three passes and finishing the day with negative five yards. That is really tough, but it's not all on him. Lemon's usage was odd to say the least... Given what Lemon was good at, I think he should live in the slot and eat up short targets there to get him going.

Lemon's Week 1 was rough: 3 catches, -5 yards, but 29 snaps suggest Eagles want him involved.

Lemon was targeted four times in Week 1, catching three passes for negative five yards; his usage was odd with two catches on doomed screens and one short perimeter target. Despite the poor performance, he logged 29 receiver snaps (third-most at his position), indicating the Eagles want him involved. The source suggests Lemon should live in the slot to get him going, as he missed significant offseason practice time due to hamstring injury.
