Full participant Friday
Fri, Sep 25, 2026, 7:26 PM
Mukuba (knee) was a full participant in Friday's practice.
Analysis: Mukuba was a full participant in Friday's practice after being limited in Thursday's session. The safety appears to be over the knee injury that plagued him throughout Week 2. Mukuba will likely head into Monday night's game against the Bears healthy and without any injury designation. |

Upgrades to full participation Friday
Fri, Sep 25, 2026, 7:22 PM
Carter (wrist) was a full participant in Friday's practice.
Analysis: Carter logged a limited practice session Thursday before upgrading to full participation Friday. The defensive tackle appears to be over the wrist injury that he played through in the Eagles' Week 2 win over the Titans. There is a strong chance Carter heads into Monday night's matchup with the Bears fully healthy and clear of any injury designation. |

Limited in consecutive sessions
Fri, Sep 25, 2026, 7:18 PM
Greenard (pectoral) was a limited participant in Friday's practice.
Analysis: Greenard has logged a pair of limited practice sessions during the Eagles' Week 3 prep for Monday night's game against the Bears. The strongside linebacker logged three limited sessions in Week 2 before remaining sidelined in the team's 24-20 win over the Titans. Unless Greenard upgrades to a full participant in Saturday's session, the 29-year-old will likely continue to wait for his 2026 debut. |

Hollywood Brown Hollywood Brown DNP Friday
Fri, Sep 25, 2026, 7:14 PM
Brown (ankle) did not participate in Friday's practice.
Analysis: Brown appeared on Friday's practice report as a DNP. The wide receiver appears to be dealing with an ankle injury, though the severity of the issue remains unclear. If Brown is unable to practice in any capacity Saturday, the chances of the 29-year-old suiting up for Monday night's game against the Bears will be very slim. |

Will Shipley Will Shipley Upgrades to limited Friday
Fri, Sep 25, 2026, 7:09 PM
Shipley (foot) was a limited participant in Friday's practice.
Analysis: Shipley missed Thursday's practice with a foot injury he likely suffered in Sunday's win over the Titans. The running back has quickly improved his participation, a good sign for the 24-year-old's availability for Monday night's game against the Bears. |

Tank Bigsby Tank Bigsby Logs limited practice Friday
Fri, Sep 25, 2026, 5:39 PM
Bigsby (abdomen) was limited at practice Friday.
Analysis: After Saquon Barkley suffered a stinger this past Sunday at Tennessee, the initial question surrounded who between Bigsby and fellow RB Will Shipley (foot) was slated for more work in the short term. However, Barkley already has progressed to full participation as of Friday, while Bigsby and Shipley followed up absences Thursday with some on-field work one day later. As a result, whoever is the healthiest of the two likely will be the best bet to earn complementary reps out of the Eagles backfield Monday in Chicago. |

Dallas Goedert Dallas Goedert No practice again Friday
Fri, Sep 25, 2026, 5:33 PM
Goedert (knee) didn't practice Friday.
Analysis: Goedert has yet to log any on-field work since emerging from a Week 2 win in Tennessee with an apparent MCL sprain, which typically requires multiple weeks to recover from. The Eagles haven't officially ruled him out for Monday's game at Chicago, but Saturday's injury report should provide clarity on his status for at least Week 3. In Goedert's likely absence, Johnny Mundt, E.J. Jenkins and practice-squad member Zach Ertz will be the candidates to fill in at tight end. |
|
DeVonta Smith DeVonta Smith Limited at Friday's practice
Fri, Sep 25, 2026, 5:27 PM
Smith (hamstring) practiced in a limited capacity Friday.
Analysis: After sitting out Thursday's practice due to a hamstring issue, Smith returned to the field one day later and logged some individual drills before running on a side field, per Brooks Kubena of The Athletic. Smith thus still has some work to do to prove his health ahead of Monday's game at Chicago, and Saturday's injury report will reveal whether or not he has a designation for Week 3 action. |
|
Saquon Barkley Saquon Barkley Full practice Friday
Fri, Sep 25, 2026, 5:22 PM
Barkley (stinger) was a full practice participant Friday.
Analysis: Barkley's status for Week 3 was chief among the health concerns coming out of a Week 2 win at Tennessee in which he suffered a stinger and missed most of the first half. After kicking off this week with a limited practice Thursday, he handled every practice rep one day later, indicating he's good to go for Monday's contest in Chicago. Having said that, Barkley told Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia on Friday that he'll wear protective gear around his neck and shoulders this week and perhaps as long as symptoms of the stinger are impacting him. |

Saquon Barkley Saquon Barkley Will wear protective gear Monday
Fri, Sep 25, 2026, 4:48 PM
Barkley (stinger) said Friday that he's "feeling good" this week and will wear protective gear around his neck during Monday's contest at Chicago, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Analysis: Barkley also relayed that he underwent an MRI earlier this week on his left shoulder to ensure there wasn't additional damage after he sustained a stinger in this past Sunday's win in Tennessee. He officially was a limited participant Thursday and took part in Friday's session, but unless he logs a full practice either Friday or Saturday, he seems destined to be tagged with a designation ahead of Week 3 action. |

DeVonta Smith DeVonta Smith Getting in some work Friday
Fri, Sep 25, 2026, 2:04 PM
Smith (hamstring) wasn't in uniform at the start of Friday's practice but eventually took part in individual drills before running on a side field, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: After sitting out Thursday's practice due to a hamstring injury, Smith's ability to get in some work Friday generally is a good sign as the Eagles prepare for a Week 3 visit to Chicago. At the very least, he appears as if he'll be listed as a limited participant on Philadelphia's second practice report of the week, and he'll have another chance to mix in at Saturday's session before the team potentially tags him with a designation ahead of Monday's contest. |

Saquon Barkley Saquon Barkley Practicing again Friday
Fri, Sep 25, 2026, 1:56 PM
Barkley (stinger) is taking part in the open portion of Friday's practice, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Barkley is stacking practices in the wake of the stinger that he sustained during a Week 2 win at Tennessee, going down as a limited participant to begin Week 3 prep and likely to be listed as at least that Friday. He told Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer on Thursday that an MRI on his left shoulder "went well," and the running back also was seen wearing a protective device on his shoulder and neck area at the ensuing session. With Tank Bigsby (abdomen) and Will Shipley (foot) also on the injury report this week, the situation in the Eagles backfield will be monitored to get a sense of who may be able to play Monday in Chicago. |

Practices Thursday
Thu, Sep 24, 2026, 6:44 PM
Greenard (pectoral) was able to practice on a limited basis Thursday.
Analysis: The pass rusher has yet to make his regular-season debut since getting traded to Philadelphia in the offseason, but he has now opened the practice week on a positive note. That said, Greenard was also a limited participant leading up to the Eagles' Week 2 matchup with the Titans before ultimately sitting out of the game. If Greenard can upgrade to full participation before Monday's matchup with the Bears, it should be a sign that he's on track to play. |

Will Shipley Will Shipley Misses practice Thursday
Thu, Sep 24, 2026, 6:38 PM
Shipley (foot) did not participate in practice Thursday.
Analysis: The running back is apparently dealing with a foot injury as the practice week begins for Philadelphia. Shipley carried the ball seven times for 24 yards and caught two passes for five yards in the Eagles' 24-20 win over the Titans last Sunday, seeing an expanded role with Saquon Barkley on the bench for much of the game. Barkley (shoulder) was limited Thursday, and Shipley could play a bigger role again if the starter can't go this coming Monday at Chicago, but that will depend on the Clemson product's status. |
|
Limited Thursday
Thu, Sep 24, 2026, 6:31 PM
Mukuba (knee) was limited in practice Thursday.
Analysis: The safety missed practice last Thursday before returning to the field Friday and then playing in Sunday's win over the Titans. Mukuba appears to still be dealing with the knee issue, but the fact that he can practice might be a sign that he's on track to play again. The second-year pro also has an extra day to get ready since Philly doesn't play until Monday night at Chicago. |
|
Back on injury report
Thu, Sep 24, 2026, 6:26 PM
Carter (wrist) was a limited participant in practice Thursday.
Analysis: The defensive tackle shed his injury tag ahead of the Eagles' Week 2 win over the Titans, but the issue seems to still be bothering him. As of now, Carter's ability to practice should stand as a good sign, since he was also limited during the week leading up to the Tennessee game. His status heading into the weekend will be worth monitoring, though. |
|
Tank Bigsby Tank Bigsby Misses Thursday practice
Thu, Sep 24, 2026, 6:14 PM
Bigsby (hamstring) didn't participate in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Bigsby was spotted in sweats during the open portion of Thursday's session, and now the reason for his absence has become known. Both Bigsby and fellow reserve RB Will Shipley (foot) were DNPs to kick off Week 3 prep, while Saquon Barkley, who suffered a stinger this past Sunday in Tennessee, was limited. Because all three are banged up to some extent at this point in the week, the overall situation will be watched to get a sense of who among the three may be able to play Monday at Chicago. |
|
Dallas Goedert Dallas Goedert No practice Thursday
Thu, Sep 24, 2026, 6:09 PM
Goedert (knee) was a non-participant at Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Goedert didn't return after departing this past Sunday's win in Tennessee due to a knee injury, and Ian Rapoport and Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Monday that the tight end was expected to miss some time due to an MCL sprain. Thus, Goedert's lack of activity Thursday isn't a surprise, but the team has yet to officially rule him out for Monday's contest at Chicago. Assuming Goedert is inactive Week 3, Johnny Mundt, E.J. Jenkins and perhaps newcomer Zach Ertz, who is on the practice squad, will be manning tight end for the Eagles. |

DeVonta Smith DeVonta Smith Dealing with hamstring injury
Thu, Sep 24, 2026, 6:02 PM
Smith didn't practice Thursday due to a hamstring injury.
Analysis: Smith was spotted in sweats and not pads like most of his teammates during the media-access portion of Thursday's session, and now the reason for his lack of activity has become known. His status will be watched closely Friday and Saturday to get a sense of his odds to play Monday at Chicago. |

Saquon Barkley Saquon Barkley Officially limited Thursday
Thu, Sep 24, 2026, 5:58 PM
Barkley (stinger) practiced on a limited basis Thursday.
Analysis: Barkley missed most of the first half of the Eagles' Week 2 win at Tennessee due to a stinger, but he returned in the second half and ended the contest with five touches for 20 yards from scrimmage. He told Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer on Thursday that an MRI on his left shoulder "went well," and during the corresponding session he was spotted wearing a protective device on his shoulder and neck area, per Zach Berman of The Athletic. Barkley is actually the healthiest of the running backs on Philadelphia's active roster, as both Tank Bigsby (abdomen) and Will Shipley (foot) were held out of drills entirely to begin Week 3 prep. The overall situation bears monitoring in the coming days to see who among the trio will be available Monday in Chicago. |
