Dontayvion Wicks Dontayvion Wicks Five catches in win over Tennessee
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 6:41 PM
Wicks caught five of six targets for 74 yards in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Titans.
Analysis: While he wasn't able to get into the end zone for a second straight week, Wicks still had a strong showing as the Eagles' clear WR2 behind DeVonta Smith, but ahead of rookie first-round pick Makai Lemon. The former Packer is looking good in his new offense, producing a 7-147-1 line on 10 targets through two contests, and Wicks will look to keep developing chemistry with Jalen Hurts in a Week 3 road trip to Chicago. |

Tank Bigsby Tank Bigsby Gets into end zone in Sunday's win
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 6:38 PM
Bigsby carried the ball 13 times for 33 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Titans. He also caught both his targets for five yards.
Analysis: The fourth-year RB got the Eagles on the board in the second quarter with a two-yard TD plunge, and Bigsby led the backfield in totes and rushing yards after Saquon Barkley picked up a stinger on the first play from scrimmage. Barkley was able to return after halftime, but he'll be sent for further testing and isn't guaranteed to be 100 percent for a Week 3 road trip to Chicago. If he's sidelined or just has his workload scaled back, Bigsby would be poised to benefit. |

DeVonta Smith DeVonta Smith Big day in Week 2 win
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 6:27 PM
Smith caught 10 of 13 targets for 117 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Titans.
Analysis: The veteran wideout saw more than twice as many targets as any other Eagle, with Smith's biggest reception coming just before halftime on a 22-yard TD toss from Jalen Hurts. Smith is looking the part of Philly's new WR1 following the offseason departure of A.J. Brown, compiling a 13-170-1 line on 19 targets through two games. He'll look to build on those numbers in a Week 3 road trip to Chicago. |

Jalen Hurts Jalen Hurts Overcomes two picks against Titans
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 6:12 PM
Hurts completed 26 of 37 passes for 264 yards and two touchdowns with two interceptions in Sunday's 24-20 win over Tennessee. He added 16 yards on five carries.
Analysis: Both picks led to points for the Titans, including a fourth-quarter field goal that put the home side up 20-17 with less than two minutes left. Hurts atoned for his mistakes, however, leading a nine-play, 65-yard drive that was capped by a three-yard TD strike to Darius Cooper that won the game. Hurts has already thrown five touchdowns in two games, after tossing a career-high 25 in 16 regular-season contests in 2025, and he'll look to keep that momentum going in a Week 3 road trip to Chicago. |

Saquon Barkley Saquon Barkley Slated for MRI on shoulder stinger
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 4:27 PM
Barkley said after Sunday's 24-20 win at Tennessee that he feels "alright," but he'll undergo an MRI after missing a portion of the game due to a stinger, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Barkley was diagnosed with a stinger after the Eagles' first offensive play of the game and missed the rest of the first half, but he was able to return after halftime, finishing with four carries for nine yards and one catch (on two targets) for 11 yards. Meanwhile, Tank Bigsby paced the backfield with 15 touches for 38 yards from scrimmage and one rushing TD, and fellow RB Will Shipley turned nine touches into 29 total yards. If Barkley ends up missing any time, Bigsby likely would be the primary beneficiary, but Shipley also figures to have a role in Philadelphia's offense. |

Saquon Barkley Saquon Barkley Checks back into Sunday's game
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 1:39 PM
Barkley (shoulder) returned to Sunday's game against the Titans for the start of the third quarter, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: After suffering a stinger on a carry for no gain on the Eagles' first offensive snap, Barkley sat out the rest of the first half while making trips to the medical tent on the sideline as well as the locker room. The Eagles had listed Barkley as questionable to return, and the running back apparently responded well enough to treatment for the team to send him back on the field to begin the second half. |

Dallas Goedert Dallas Goedert Iffy to return due to knee injury
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 12:57 PM
Goedert is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Titans due to a knee injury.
Analysis: Goedert reeled in one of two targets for a four-yard gain before leaving the game in the first half after he appeared to get upended while run blocking, per Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer. According to McLane, Goedert checked into the medical tent to be evaluated further, but the Eagles could examine him more thoroughly in the locker room before deciding whether he's able to return to the contest. The Eagles will be left with Johnny Mundt and E.J. Jenkins as their options at tight end if Goedert ends up sitting out for the rest of the game. |

Saquon Barkley Saquon Barkley Questionable to return to Week 2
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 12:24 PM
The Eagles announced that Barkley is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Titans due to a stinger.
Analysis: Barkley appeared to be favoring his neck and left shoulder after he was tackled to the ground on a carry during the Eagles' first offensive play of the game. The running back headed to the locker room shortly after the play in question and is receiving further treatment for the injury while the Eagles determine whether or not he's able to return. Tank Bigsby and Will Shipley will likely share work out of the backfield if Barkley ends up being shut down for the rest of the contest. |

Saquon Barkley Saquon Barkley Tending to left arm injury
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 12:19 PM
Barkley headed to the locker room during the first quarter of Sunday's game against the Titans to be evaluated for an apparent left arm injury, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Analysis: Barkley sustained the injury on a zero-yard carry on the Eagles' first offensive play of the game. After a brief trip to the medical tent on the sideline, Barkley jogged back to the locker room to be checked out further. The Eagles should have an update on the star running back's status shortly. |

Andy Dalton Andy Dalton Active as backup signal-caller
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 11:50 AM
Dalton is active as the Eagles' top backup quarterback for Sunday's game against the Titans.
Analysis: After facing competition from Tanner McKee and rookie Cole Payton for the No. 2 job behind Jalen Hurts throughout training camp and the preseason, Dalton has emerged as the victor in the job battle. Dalton will suit up for the second week in a row, while McKee is inactive as the emergency No. 3 quarterback and Payton is also donning street clothes. |

Active for Week 2
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 10:51 AM
Mukuba (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Titans.
Analysis: Mukuba did not participate in Thursday's practice with a left knee injury. The free safety quickly upgraded to limited participation Friday in anticipation of Sunday's contest. Mukuba is now all set to suit up as a starter in the Eagles' secondary next to strong safety Marcus Epps. |

Elijah Moore Elijah Moore Remains inactive for Week 2
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 10:48 AM
Moore (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Titans.
Analysis: The veteran wideout will serve as a healthy scratch for the second time in as many games to open the season. Moore appears destined to retain the same status moving forward unless multiple injuries strike at wide receiver for the Eagles. |

Cole Payton Cole Payton Inactive again Sunday
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 10:43 AM
Payton (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Titans.
Analysis: With Jalen Hurts entrenched as the starter, Andy Dalton as the backup and Tanner McKee as the emergency third quarterback, there isn't a role for Payton on the gameday roster. The fifth-round rookie's status will likely remain unchanged unless one of the first three options ahead of him misses time. |

Tanner McKee Tanner McKee Emergency QB once again
Sun, Sep 20, 2026, 10:38 AM
McKee (coach's decision) is inactive as the emergency third quarterback for Sunday's game against the Titans.
Analysis: McKee will be the emergency option for the Eagles in consecutive weeks. The 26-year-old will only enter the game if both active quarterbacks cannot continue to play. The quarterback should stay in this role throughout the 2026 season unless Jalen Hurts or Andy Dalton suffers an injury. |

Tagged as questionable Week 2
Fri, Sep 18, 2026, 6:46 PM
Mukuba (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Tennessee.
Analysis: Mukuba popped up on Thursday's injury report as a DNP due to a left knee injury, but he earned the questionable tag for Sunday's road tilt after practicing Friday in a limited capacity. Michael Carter figures to be the top candidate to start alongside Marcus Epps at safety if Mukuba is unable to play against the Titans. |

Won't play Week 2
Fri, Sep 18, 2026, 6:41 PM
Greenard (pectoral) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Titans.
Analysis: Greenard was limited in all three practice sessions due to a pectoral strain that he sustained during offseason workouts before the start of training camp. He didn't open the regular season on the active/PUP list, so the Eagles appear confident that Greenard is close to making his 2026 debut, which could come as soon as Week 3 against the Bears on Monday, Sept. 28. Jalyx Hunt, Arnold Ebiketie and A.J. Epenesa will all operate in elevated roles at edge alongside Nolan Smith for as long as Greenard is shelved. |

Sheds injury tag for Week 2
Fri, Sep 18, 2026, 6:37 PM
Carter (wrist) does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's road game against the Titans.
Analysis: Carter finished the week with a DNP/LP/LP practice log while working through a wrist injury that he picked up during the Eagles' Week 1 win over the Commanders. Despite the lack of a full practice, the fourth-year defensive lineman has been given the green light to play Week 2. He'll be tasked with plugging the middle against the Titans' rushing attack, which is led by Tony Pollard. |

Cleared to play against Tennessee
Fri, Sep 18, 2026, 6:33 PM
DeJean (calf) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Titans.
Analysis: DeJean was working through both calf and abdominal injuries during Week 2 prep, but he finished with a DNP/LP/FP practice log, with Friday's full session being enough for the third-year pro to avoid an injury tag. DeJean played every single defensive snap during the Eagles' Week 1 win over the Commanders, finishing with eight tackles (four solo). |

Nursing knee issue
Thu, Sep 17, 2026, 7:44 PM
Mukuba (knee) did not participate at practice Thursday.
Analysis: Per Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer, Mukuba was wearing a sleeve on his left leg Thursday, but he told reporters he was okay. The picture should at least be a bit clearer when the Eagles publish their last injury report of the week Friday. |
|
Upgrades to limited practice Thursday
Thu, Sep 17, 2026, 7:40 PM
Carter (wrist) was a limited participant at practice Thursday.
Analysis: Per Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia, Carter said Thursday, "I'm playing this week." His lack of full participation at practice leaves a bit of space for skepticism, but that could get cleared up when the Eagles release their final injury report of the week Friday. |
