KEY: DNP = Did not participate | LP = Limited participation | FP = Full participation | NIR = Not injury related

That's a lot of players on an injury report who had some extra time to rest. On a lighter note, the three Eagles who did not participate in practice are backups. The other nine were limited.

Injury report observations:

  • Bradberry remains in concussion protocol. With his absence in Week 2, the Eagles went with former undrafted free agent Josh Jobe. Hopefully, the extra time to recover means Bradberry will be active on Monday. 
  • With Watkins dealing with a hamstring injury, it now makes sense as to why the Eagles signed Britain Covey to the active roster this week. 
  • Gainwell is still dealing with that rib injury, but head coach Nick Sirianni gave a promising update on him Monday. It will be fun to see how they use both Gainwell and D'Andre Swift in the backfield. 
  • Cox's rib injury is nothing new and it's all about pain management. He played 44 defensive snaps in Week 2.
