The Eagles have released their final injury report of the week and predictably, there are a slew of players who are sitting on the fence heading into Sunday.
Nelson Agholor has missed practice this week with a knee injury that has hampered him quite substantially over the last few weeks. He missed the game against Seattle and after a brief return against Miami, would be sidelined again in the win over the Giants. Greg Ward Jr. has been the man filling his shoes and should be in-line to do so again against the Redskins.
Derek Barnett missed last week’s game after picking up an injury against Miami. He played 50 snaps in that matchup. Vinny Curry will continue to see an increased workload in his absence and is coming off a 2-sack outing against New York.
Jordan Howard is questionable again with a stinger injury that has forced him to miss every game since the win against his former team. We can expect to see a healthy dose of Miles Sanders and Boston Scott.
Interestingly, Ronald Darby is questionable and a late addition to the injury report. If he’s out, it’ll be down to any one of Sidney Jones, Rasul Douglas, or Cre’Von LeBlanc to step up. The Eagles have 7 active cornerbacks and Darby has hardly been exceptional this year, making this a manageable situation.
Halapoulivaati Vaitai will fill in for Lane Johnson, who will miss Sunday’s game with an ankle injury.
