A few games into his rookie season the Eagles signed a waiver wire pickup and benched Watkins.
You are thinking of the unlamented Kyle Devan. He was signed before the season because Mudd had worked with him in Indy. He started a few games while Watkins (who had held out of Training Camp) absorbed the offense. As soon as Watkins was able to start, Devan was sent to the bench. Watkins started the rest of season and continued to start until late in the following season.
