Injury Report Observations

  • Smith injured his ankle in Week 17's loss to the Cardinals. His injury is considered mild and head coach Nick Sirianni remains optimistic that he'll be available on Sunday. 
  • Davis is a new addition to the injury report with an ankle issue.
  • Slay practiced for the first time in three weeks, which is huge for the secondary.
  • Cunningham also returned to practice, another big win for the Eagles' defense ahead of playoffs.
  • Maddox was injured on Sunday and played limited snaps, but it appears to be nothing to be too concerned about.
  • Reddick returned to practice on Thursday after missing Wednesday with an illness.
