The Philadelphia Eagles issued their first official injury report in advance of their Week 8 home game against the New York Giants.
The Eagles listed five players under DID NOT PARTICIPATE: A.J. Brown, Cam Jurgens, Adoree’ Jackson, Azeez Ojulari, and Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Brown unexpectedly missed practice due to a hamstring injury. That’s certainly not ideal. We’ll see how serious it is.
Jurgens seems bound to miss this week after suffering a knee injury in Week 7. It remains to be seen who the Eagles will start at center. Brett Toth filled in for Jurgens on Sunday but the Eagles could opt to move Landon Dickerson to the pivot and have Toth or someone else play left guard.
Jackson is going through the concussion protocol. Seems like he won’t be cleared in time to play. Kelee Ringo could get another start at cornerback.
Ojulari could miss this week due to a hamstring injury. The Eagles are light at edge rusher.
Trot Jr. potentially being out hurts the Eagles’ linebacker depth and their special teams coverage units.
The Eagles listed five players under LIMITED PARTICIPATION: Landon Dickerson, Dallas Goedert, Moro Ojomo, Jakorian Bennett, and Grant Calcaterra.
These players have a chance to play this week but we’ll see how they progress over the next two days.
The Eagles listed one player under FULL PARTICIPATION: Brandon Graham.
Speaking on his Unblocked podcast, Graham didn’t rule out being able to play against the Giants. But it did sound like returning after the Eagles’ Week 9 bye could be more likely. We’ll see. Graham currently doesn’t count against the Eagles’ roster limit; the team has a two-week exemption for him. The Eagles will need to activate Graham to the roster before 4:00 PM Eastern on Saturday, October 25 if they want him to suit up against the G-Men.

NEW YORK GIANTS INJURY REPORT (WEDNESDAY)
Four Giants players did not practice: starting edge rusher Brian Burns, starting cornerback Paulson Adebo, starting safety Jevon Holland, and rotational defensive lineman Chauncey Gholston. Missing starters would not be a very good development for a struggling Giants defense. Will be interesting to see how they fare in practice over the next two days. For what it’s worth, Burns told reporters he plans on playing against the Eagles.
Starting wide receiver Darius Slayton, starting center John Michael Schmitz, and starting right tackle Jermaine Eluemunor were among seven limited players on Wednesday. They might be able to suit up this week but we’ll see.
Veteran kicker Graham Gano appears to be ready to return from injured reserve. The Giants cut fill-in option Jude McAtamney, who struggled.
