Will Shipley injury update: Latest news on Eagles RB's status in Week 5 game
The Philadelphia Eagles have an injury concern with running back Will Shipley in the first half of the Week 5 game against the Jaguars.
Will Shipley, the Philadelphia Eagles' running back, sustained an injury during their Week 5 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The incident occurred in the second quarter, causing Shipley to be taken to the medical tent for evaluation. Before leaving the game, Shipley had contributed with five carries for six yards and a touchdown, as well as one catch for seven yards.
The Eagles are already struggling with a lack of running backs due to injuries to both their starter, Saquon Barkley, and backup, Tank Bigsby. Now, with Shipley's questionable status for the remainder of the game, the team faces an even more challenging situation.
As of now, the Eagles have announced that Shipley is questionable to return due to a foot injury. However, the exact nature of his injury remains unclear at this stage. The team is closely monitoring the situation and will provide an update when more information becomes available. In the meantime, Dameon Pierce will assume the role of the lead back.
