Eagles Week 9 Injury Report Observations
- TE Dallas Goedert is expected to miss a few games with his hamstring injury so this is nothing new.
- CB Darius Slay missing two practices this week is not a good sign. Isaiah Rodgers will be the one to step up in his place.
- Mekhi Becton missed last week's win over the Cincinnati Bengals but it looks like he will be good to go this week.
- Jalen Carter started last week on the injury report with the same injury be still played in Week 8 and it appears he'll be just fine for Sunday.
- With Landon Dickerson out on Wednesday, Tyler Steen took snaps at left guard.
- DT Byron Young and CB Eli Ricks are off of the injury report after being on it for two weeks.
- TE Albert Okwuegbunam returned from injured reserve two weeks ago. The Eagles have one more week to activate him.
- The Eagles released defensive tackle Siaki Ika from the practice squad and signed offensive lineman Braeden Daniels to take his place.
