Eagles rule out Saquon Barkley, DeVonta Smith for matchup vs. Jaguars
Saquon Barkley and DeVonta Smith are out against Jacksonville. Drew Kendall also will miss the game, while Jonathan Greenard is questionable
The Philadelphia Eagles have ruled out running back Saquon Barkley and wide receiver DeVonta Smith due to hamstring injuries, leaving quarterback Jalen Hurts without two key offensive players for their upcoming game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London. Additionally, center Drew Kendall, safety Marcus Epps, and wide receiver Marquise "Hollywood" Brown are also out.
This leaves the Eagles with a depleted roster, forcing players like Will Shipley, Dameon Pierce, Darius Cooper, Makai Lemon, and Elijah Moore to take on larger roles. The injury report also highlights the absence of offensive line center Lane Johnson, who retired, and the trade of Cam Jurgens to Baltimore, further complicating the offensive line situation.
The Eagles currently stand at 2-2 and will need production from their reserves to avoid a third consecutive loss, with the game's outcome potentially hanging in the balance due to the injuries and lineup adjustments.
