The Philadelphia Eagles (11-2) are looking even healthier as they prepare to face the Pittsburgh Steelers (10-3) at Lincoln Financial Field on Sunday. 

Except for safety Sydney Brown (knee), everyone who did not practice at all or was limited on Wednesday due to rest or an injury returned as full participants on Thursday. 

That included safety Reed Blankenship (concussion), defensive tackle Jalen Carter (shoulder), and wide receiver Britain Covey (neck). 

Brown (knee) was a limited participant after missing Wednesday's practice. 

The Eagles did add quarterback Jalen Hurts (left finger) and linebacker Nakobe Dean (elbow) to the injury report on Wednesday but both have been full participants all week. 

Eagles Week 15 Injury Report Observations

  • Quarterback Jalen Hurts injured his finger in Week 14's win over the Carolina Panthers. 
  • Right tackle Lane Johnson returned to practice after missing Wednesday due to a personal reason. 
  • Safety Reed Blankenship suffered a concussion in the Eagles' Week 13 win over the Baltimore Ravens.
  • Safety Sydney Brown has been dealing with a lingering knee injury all season long and did not play in Week 14. We'll see how he progresses as the week goes on.
  • Cornerback Darius Slay has also been on and off the injury report this season with a lingering knee issue so it's good to see he just took a rest day.
  • Wide receiver Britain Covey is back at practice after missing last week's game with the same injury. The Eagles relied on Cooper DeJean in his absence.
  • Defensive tackle Jalen Carter has played through the same shoulder injury throughout the season.
  • The Eagles now look very healthy as they enter a must-win game against the Steelers at home.
