Eagles injuries. Latest on DeVonta Smith, Saquon Barkley, vs Jaguars
The Eagles might be getting some key players back against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Who's in, who's out?
Philadelphia Eagles are set to face the Jacksonville Jaguars in London on October 11. Key players Dallas Goedert and Zack Baun are slated to return from injuries for the game. Tight end Goedert and linebacker Baun practiced on October 9, although they were limited on earlier days. Baun will need clearance from a neurologist before he can play, while Goedert's return is more certain.
Wide receiver DeVonta Smith, running back Saquon Barkley, outside linebacker Jonathan Greenard, and center Drew Kendall are also among the players who missed practice for a third consecutive day. Injured wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks, who replaced Smith, was limited but may still be available for the game. With the departure of guard Lane Johnson and the trade of center Cam Jurgens, rookies Markel Bell and Willie Lampkin will either start or be added to the 53-man roster, marking their first career NFL starts.
Head coach Nick Sirianni expressed optimism about the team's preparation and strategy despite the injuries.
