The Philadelphia Eagles issued their second official injury report in advance of their Week 1 home game against the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday night.
The Eagles listed one player under DID NOT PARTICIPATE: Tanner McKee.
McKee has yet to be seen throwing a football since he suffered a fractured thumb injury late in training camp. Thus, Sam Howell will be the top backup quarterback behind Jalen Hurts on Thursday night.
The Eagles listed four players under FULL PARTICIPATION: Landon Dickerson, Andrew Mukuba, Joshua Uche, and Jalen Carter.
Dickerson returned to practice on Tuesday after sitting out on Monday. Nick Sirianni confirmed Dickerson’s knee injury wasn’t the reason for his absence; it was instead the listed “back” issue. Now again practicing in full, Dickerson is primed to start on Thursday night. Good news for the Eagles’ offensive line outlook.
Mukuba was upgraded to full participation after being listed as limited on Monday. The rookie safety figures to be a backup to Sydney Brown … but it’s not impossible that he’s starting. It’s also possible we could see Mukuba rotate in. He lined up as the sixth defensive back in dime packages this summer.
Uche was upgraded to full participation after being listed as limited on Monday. He’s poised to rank third in edge rusher snaps behind Nolan Smith and Jalyx Hunt.
Carter is ready to play.
