Jonathan Greenard is inactive for the Eagles

The Eagles ruled out a slew of players ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London, so there wasn't much mystery to their inactive list ahead of kickoff.

On October 4, 2026, the Philadelphia Eagles released their inactives list for their upcoming Week 5 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Headliner Jonathan Greenard, the team's veteran pass-rusher, was out due to an ankle injury. Saquon Barkley, DeVonta Smith, Drew Kendall, Marcus Epps, and Hollywood Brown also missed the game.

With Greenard's absence, Jalyx Hunt, Nolan Smith, Arnold Ebiketie, and A.J. Epenesa will form the Eagles' edge defenders. Barkley, Smith, Kendall, Epps, and Brown all missed their final injury report, leaving the roster with Will Shipley, Dameon Pierce, and Carson Steele as their active running backs. Shipley is expected to carry the majority of the load, though Pierce may contribute significantly. Carson Steele is likely to see limited action.

The Eagles' receiving corps now features five active players: Dontayvion Wicks, Darius Cooper, Makai Lemon, Elijah Moore, and Britain Covey. With the inactives, Jake Majors will start at center after being called up from the practice squad. Michael Carter II will take over as the nickel safety when Cooper DeJean moves to the slot.

The Jaguars saw no surprises in their inactive list, with backup corner Jaylon Jones ruled out and starting safety Eric Murray listed as doubtful. Wide receiver CJ Williams, cornerback Alijah Huzzie, and safety Eric Murray were also on the list. The Jaguars released Daniel Faalele, Wesley Williams, and Albert Regis from their active roster.
