Thursday news and updates.
The Philadelphia Eagles issued their second official injury report on Thursday in advance of their Week 10 road game against the Dallas Cowboys.
The Eagles listed 11 players under FULL PARTICIPATION: Jalen Hurts, Saquon Barkley, A.J. Brown, Dallas Goedert, Mekhi Becton, Cam Jurgens, Darius Slay, Josh Sweat, Bryce Huff, Ainias Smith, and Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Hurts and Barkley were upgraded to full go after being limited on Wednesday due to rest.
Brown was notably upgraded to full go after being listed as limited on Wednesday. He’s on pace to play this week. Really good news.
Goedert is on track to return after missing three games.
Becton and Jurgens were upgraded to full go. They’re set to start.
Slay is on track to return after missing Week 9. Isaiah Rodgers will head back to the bench.
Sweat and Huff were upgraded to full go. They’ll play. It’ll be interesting to monitor Huff’s snap count after he only played six in Week 9 … purportedly due to his injury.
Rookies Ainias and Trot Jr. will be able to play.
The Eagles listed four players under LIMITED PARTICIPATION: DeVonta Smith, Fred Johnson, Nolan Smith, and Ben VanSumeren.
DeVonta rarely misses games, so, I think it’s more likely he plays than not. But we’ll see how he does in Friday’s practice.
Johnson seemed optimistic about his chances to play but that might not be a lock. It could be either Jack Driscoll or Tyler Steen starting at left tackle if he can’t suit up.
Nolan was upgraded from DNP to limited, so, he might be able to play.
BVS might have a shot to clear the concussion protocol in time for Sunday’s game. If not, he should miss one game at most.
