It's almost game time as the Philadelphia Eagles gear up to take on Kirk Cousins and the Minnesota Vikings on Thursday Night Football.
The Eagles enter this matchup a bit banged up from Week 1's win over the New England Patriots.
Below is the Eagles’ full list of inactives against the Vikings:
- S Reed Blankenship
- CB James Bradberry
- RB Kenneth Gainwell
- QB Tanner McKee
- DT Moro Ojomo
- TE Albert Okwuegbunam
- OG Tyler Steen
Who we don't see on the list is star defensive tackle Fletcher Cox.
Cox was questionable with a rib injury heading into the short week of preparation, however, he will suit up and play tonight. That's good news against a Vikings offense that features four-time Pro Bowl quarterback Kirk Cousins and two speedy wide receivers in Justin Jefferson and 2023 first-round pick Jordan Addison.
Safety Reed Blankenship (ribs), cornerback James Bradberry (concussion) and running back Kenny Gainwell (ribs) were ruled out on Thursday.
Here's who is inactive for the Vikings:
- C Garrett Bradbury
- LB Andre Carter
- QB Jaren Hall
- TE Nick Muse
- DT Jaquelin Roy
Kickoff at Lincoln Financial Field is at 8:15 p.m. ET.
