Eagles WR A.J. Brown (hamstring) is listed as questionable for this weekend's game vs. the Bucs. Philly could certainly use him with WR DeVonta Smith out, but we remain skeptical that Brown will play after only getting in a limited practice on Friday. An upcoming Week 5 bye should also figure into the team's decision on whether to play him against Tampa Bay. We'll look for further updates on Brown's status and get the Eagles' inactives around 11:30 am ET on Sunday.
Eagles WR DeVonta Smith (concussion) is out for Sunday's game vs. the Bucs. Philly gets a Week 5 bye, and Smith should be cleared before the Week 6 meeting with the Browns. We'll keep tabs on his progress.
Eagles WRs A.J. Brown (hamstring) and DeVonta Smith (concussion) remained sidelined for Thursday's practice. Both guys now look unlikely to play vs. the Bucs this weekend. If that's the case, expect an even more run-heavy offense from Philadelphia with touches funneling to RB Saquon Barkley and TE Dallas Goedert.
Eagles WRs A.J. Brown (hamstring) and DeVonta Smith (concussion) did not practice on Wednesday. Smith is unlikely to clear protocol in time for this weekend's game vs. the Bucs. And Brown looks no better than 50/50 to make it back for that one. If both guys are out, Philadelphia would be down to WRs Jahan Dotson and Johnny Wilson on the active roster. WR Parris Campbell was elevated from the practice squad for last week's game and would likely play again on Sunday. RB Saquon Barkley and TE Dallas Goedert would be the focal points of the offense.
Eagles WR Britain Covey broke a bone in his left shoulder in Sunday's win at New Orleans and is expected to miss at least six weeks, according to Philly radio voice Merrill Reese. Covey played just seven snaps before leaving the Week 3 game but nabbed 6 receptions the week before and has been the primary punt returner.
Eagles RB Saquon Barkley had just 17 yards on 5 carries at halftime of Sunday's game against the Saints, which Philly trailed 3-0 at that point. But he used a big second half to finish with 147 yards and 2 TDs on the ground. Barkley delivered a 65-yard TD run to put the Eagles ahead early in the fourth quarter. And then he scored the game's final TD from 4 yards out with 1:01 left. Barkley capped the scoring with a two-point conversion run after that.
Eagles TE Dallas Goedert set career marks for receptions (10) and receiving yards (170) in Sunday's win over the Falcons. He capped off the effort with a 61-yard catch to set up the game-winning TD run late in the fourth quarter. Goedert's 11 targets led the team and accounted for 29% of QB Jalen Hurts' total pass attempts. WR DeVonta Smith was the only other Eagle to see more than four looks.
Eagles QB Jalen Hurts threw for 311 yards in Sunday's win at New Orleans. It was a just-OK performance that included Hurts throwing a first-half INT in the end zone and losing a fumble early in the second quarter.
Eagles WR DeVonta Smith left in the fourth quarter of the game at New Orleans with a concussion. That obviously means he'll miss the rest of the game and will then need to pass through the league protocol before returning.
Eagles WR A.J. Brown (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday’s game vs. the Saints after missing practice all week. We’ll see if he can make it back for Week 4. WR Jahan Dotson registered an 86% route rate with Brown out last week but saw just one target. He can’t be trusted in fantasy lineups.
Eagles WR A.J. Brown (hamstring) did not practice on Wednesday. He told ESPN's Lisa Salters that he expects to miss "a couple of weeks" with this hamstring injury, so fantasy owners should not be counting on him in Week 3 fantasy lineups. We'll let you know if Brown's prognosis improves.
Eagles WR Jahan Dotson did -- according to the numbers -- run as the No. 2 WR in A.J. Brown's absence for Monday night's loss to the Falcons. But you wouldn't have had an easy time finding him. Despite running a route on 30 of QB Jalen Hurts' 35 drobacks (85.7%), Dotson drew just 1 target among 30 pass attempts. That trailed DeVonta Smith's team-leading total by nine, fell four short of RB Saquon Barkley, and even checked in five short of No. 3 WR Britain Covey.
Eagles RB Saquon Barkley had a fine night in the loss to the Falcons, carrying 22 times for 95 yards and catching four of five targets. He watched as QB Jalen Hurts vultured a fourth-quarter TD from a yard out -- but then Barkley added a two-point conversion. The RB hurt himself and his team, though, by dropping a third-down pass late in the third quarter. It would have extended Philly's penultimate drive and potentially delivered another shot at a TD. Instead, the Eagles had to settle for a FG and then surrendered Atlanta's game-winning TD drive.
Eagles WR A.J. Brown told ESPN's Lisa Salters that he expects to miss "a couple of weeks" with the hamstring injury he suffered in Friday's practice. It's unclear if Brown is including Monday night's game in that "couple," but fantasy owners should at least plan to again be without him in Week 3 lineups. We'll continue to keep you updated on Brown's status.
The Eagles have downgraded WR A.J. Brown (hamstring) to out for Monday night's game against the Falcons. Brown, of course, has been dealing with an injury that popped up during the practice week. His absence elevates Jahan Dotson to the No. 2 WR spot and makes him a decent fill-in option. TE Dallas Goedert also could benefit on the target-share front.
"It sounds as if there is a legitimate question" whether Eagles WR A.J. Brown (hamstring) will play vs. the Falcons on Monday night, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Brown's hamstring "tightened up" on Friday, and he did not practice on Saturday. Between the late kickoff and chance of in-game aggravation, Brown is better off on Week 2 benches in most cases. If you're hoping to use him, you should have a Monday-night alternative lined up. Beyond the obvious guys, Eagles WR Jahan Dotson and Falcons WRs Darnell Mooney and Ray-Ray McCloud are options.
Eagles WR A.J. Brown missed practice Saturday after experiencing hamstring tightness in Friday's workout. The team has listed him as questionable for Monday night's game against the Falcons.
Eagles WR A.J. Brown was added to the injury report and limited in practice on Friday with a hamstring. His status for Monday night's game vs. the Falcons is suddenly up in the air. Brown's absence would leave WR Jahan Dotson as Philadelphia's No. 2 WR -- and leave behind more target opportunity for WR DeVonta Smith, TE Dallas Goedert, and RB Saquon Barkley. We'll see how Brown is listed on the final injury report on Saturday afternoon.
Eagles WR DeVonta Smith delivered strong production through his first three seasons. The biggest fantasy complaint on him might have been a lack of weekly target consistency, especially since WR A.J. Brown arrived. But the Friday night opener gave encouraging signs for his usage under new OC Kellen Moore. Smith ran a career-high 70.7% of his pass snaps from the slot in the win over the Packers. That marked a big boost over his previous seasons.
The Packers have placed RB A.J. Dillon on IR. He was not designated to return, meaning his 2024 season is over. This is presumably related to the stinger that had Dillon sidelined recently.
