The Philadelphia Eagles have six players inactive for their Week 8 matchup against the Washington Commanders.
- LB Patrick Johnson
- QB Tanner McKee
- DT Moro Ojomo
- TE Albert Okwuegbunam
- RB Rashaad Penny
- CB Bradley Roby
Starting defensive tackle Jordan Davis (hamstring) is not on the list, which means he will play and the Eagles' defense is in full health at that position.
Davis, who was initially listed as questionable, was seen testing out his hamstring earlier today and it must have felt good enough to play.
They'll likely still monitor Davis' hamstring throughout the game, so don't be surprised if we see more snaps from rookie favorite Jalen Carter.
The Eagles are also getting starting safety Reed Blankenship back in their lineup, who had missed last Sunday's win over the Miami Dolphins due to a rib injury.
Linebacker Zach Cunningham (ankle), defensive tackle Milton Williams (heel) and cornerback James Bradberry (ankle), who were also all listed on the Eagles' injury report earlier this week will play today.
As far as the inactive list goes, there's nothing too surprising here aside from Rashaad Penny, who has been a healthy scratch for the third game in a row. Bradley Roby misses his second straight game with a shoulder injury. All defensive tackles are healthy so there's no need for rookie Mojo Ojomo to suit up.
