Dallas Goedert Dallas Goedert Ruled out
Fri, Jan 2, 2026, 3:10 PM
Goedert (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Washington.
Analysis: Goedert might not play even if he were healthy, as the Eagles are expected to rest some key starters. As is, Goedert didn't practice this week, making him one of the first names to be safely ruled out for the regular-season finale. It's unclear if there's any concern about his availability for the playoffs. |

Dallas Goedert Dallas Goedert Another DNP on Thursday
Thu, Jan 1, 2026, 4:31 PM
Goedert (knee) didn't practice Thursday.
Analysis: Goedert has yet to practice this week due to a knee injury, so the possibility exists that the Eagles keep him on the sideline Week 18 against the Commanders with a home game guaranteed for the first round of the playoffs. Grant Calcaterra, Kylen Granson and Cameron Latu would be the TEs available for more snaps this weekend if Goedert ends up in street clothes. |

Dallas Goedert Dallas Goedert Misses walkthrough with injury
Wed, Dec 31, 2025, 4:55 PM
Goedert (knee) didn't take part in Wednesday's walkthrough.
Analysis: Goedert is listed on Philadelphia's injury report for the first time since mid-October, when he dealt with a calf issue. The top TE and red-zone standout will have two more chances to practice ahead of Sunday's regular-season finale against Washington, though the Eagles' clear priority will be to get Goedert healthy in time for the playoffs. Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports that the majority of Philadelphia's key starters, a group that includes Goedert, are expected to rest Week 18. If Goedert misses any time, whatever the reason, Grant Calcaterra and Kylen Granson will figure to serve as the Eagles' top tight ends. |

Tanner McKee Tanner McKee Expected to start Week 18
Wed, Dec 31, 2025, 2:36 PM
McKee is expected to start Sunday's game against the Commanders, according to ESPN's Tim McManus.
Analysis: Eagles coach Nick Sirianni hasn't publicly disclosed his plans, but he hinted Wednesday that he'll do so after discussing everything with the team. Multiple reports suggest that Sirianni will hold out QB Jalen Hurts and other starters. |

Jalen Hurts Jalen Hurts Starters expected to rest Week 18
Wed, Dec 31, 2025, 9:16 AM
Hurts and the majority of the Eagles' key starters are expected to rest during Sunday's regular-season finale against the Commanders, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Analysis: Philadelphia has already clinched at least the No. 3 seed in the NFC playoffs. Though the team could secure the No. 2 seed by both earning a victory over Washington in Week 18 and having the Bears lose to the Lions, it appears head coach Nick Sirianni has decided that the benefits of allowing his starters an additional week to get healthy for the playoffs outweigh the allure of playing for a potential seeding bump. As such, Hurts will wrap the 2025 regular season having completed 294 of 454 passes for 3,224 yards and a career-high 25 passing touchdowns, to go with six interceptions, across 16 appearances. He also carried the ball 105 times for 421 yards and eight touchdowns, substantially lower rushing production than his prior four seasons, while fumbling eight times (four lost). |

Jahan Dotson Jahan Dotson Zero catches against Bills
Mon, Dec 29, 2025, 7:15 PM
Dotson finished with zero catches on one target in Sunday's 13-12 win over the Bills.
Analysis: Dotson has now been held without a catch on six different occasions this season and has caught exactly one pass seven times. If the Eagles rest their starters in next week's regular season finale against the Commanders, he could play a larger role, but with the second seed still a possibility with a win and a Bears loss, that may not be the plan. |
|
Will Shipley Will Shipley Two carries in narrow victory
Mon, Dec 29, 2025, 6:53 PM
Shipley rushed twice for two yards in Sunday's 13-12 victory over the Bills.
Analysis: Shipley didn't play a large role in the Week 17 victory, though it was his largest since Week 10, as he'd totalled just three catches and zero rushing attempts in the previous six weeks. With seeding still to play for in Week 18, Shipley's role may not expand much against the Commanders in the regular season finale. |

Tank Bigsby Tank Bigsby Three touches in tight win
Mon, Dec 29, 2025, 6:37 PM
Bigsby rushed twice for seven yards and caught one pass for two yards in Sunday's 13-12 win over the Bills.
Analysis: Bigsby's only big offensive outputs these season have come when the Eagles had a multi-score lead and could rest their starters late. In a tight contest Sunday, he saw the field for just five offensive snaps. The Eagles could still improve from the third to the second seed in the final week of the regular season, meaning Bigsby's role could remain small for the season finale against the Commanders. |

DeVonta Smith DeVonta Smith Gains 25 yards Sunday
Sun, Dec 28, 2025, 9:30 PM
Smith had two receptions on five targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 13-12 win over the Bills.
Analysis: QB Jalen Hurts completed less than 50 percent of his pass attempts in wet conditions in Buffalo, resulting in muted volume from Philadelphia's key offensive contributors. Smith was affected the greatest after finishing with his lowest fantasy score since a one-catch effort against Detroit in Week 11. The 26-year-old is still providing solid value for PPR fantasy managers following Sunday's dud with a 74-956-4 receiving line across 16 starts this season. Smith needs to finish with at least 44 receiving yards against the Commanders in Week 18 in order to record the third 1,000-yard season of his promising career. |

Dallas Goedert Dallas Goedert Scoring binge continues in Week 17
Sun, Dec 28, 2025, 9:22 PM
Goedert brought in three of six targets for eight yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 13-12 win over Buffalo.
Analysis: Goedert continues to be a red-zone magnet after catching his fourth touchdown over the Eagles' last three contests. The 30-year-old's career-best 11th touchdown grab helped offset the tight end's lowest yardage output to date in 2025. Goedert's nose for the end zone makes him an elite fantasy option against the Commanders in Week 18. |

A.J. Brown A.J. Brown Leading receiver on seven targets
Sun, Dec 28, 2025, 8:42 PM
Brown hauled in five of seven targets for 68 yards in Sunday's 13-12 win over the Bills.
Analysis: Brown missed a pair of practice sessions early in the week after having his wisdom teeth removed, but the procedure did not limit the wideout's availability in Sunday's road victory. The 28-year-old paced the Eagles in targets, receptions and yardage while ceding the team's only touchdown reception to TE Dallas Goedert (3-8-1). Brown's solid effort pushed him over the 1,000-yard mark for the fourth consecutive season. The star receiver is looking for a strong finish to the regular season against the Commanders in Week 18. |

Saquon Barkley Saquon Barkley Held to 68 yards against Bills
Sun, Dec 28, 2025, 8:24 PM
Barkley rushed 19 times for 68 yards and was not targeted as a receiver in Sunday's 13-12 win over Buffalo.
Analysis: Barkley failed to break away from the Bills' athletic linebacking corps and was held to 3.6 yards per tote Sunday. The 28-year-old failed to extend his modest scoring streak to four games, culminating in a mediocre fantasy performance by the superstar's standards. It was also the first time this season that Barkley did not receive a target, but the workhorse still commanded 19 of Philadelphia's 23 backfield carries. Barkley and his 280-1,140-7 rushing line will attempt to finish off a solid, yet underwhelming, regular season against the Commanders in Week 18. |

Jalen Hurts Jalen Hurts Low volume in tight win
Sun, Dec 28, 2025, 7:54 PM
Hurts completed 13 of 27 pass attempts for 110 yards and a touchdown while gaining five yards on three carries in Sunday's 13-12 win over Buffalo.
Analysis: Hurts struggled with his accuracy in wet conditions Sunday, completing less than 50 percent of his passes in a game for the first time this season. The dual-threat quarterback's 115 yards from scrimmage also represented his lowest total through 16 starts in 2025. Hurts salvaged what would have been a true stinker of a fantasy performance by tossing his career-best 25th touchdown pass to TE Dallas Goedert in the first quarter of Sunday's narrow victory. The Eagles will look to finish the regular season on a high note when Hurts leads the offense against the Commanders in Week 18. |

Sam Howell Sam Howell Operating as No. 3 QB in Week 17
Sun, Dec 28, 2025, 2:06 PM
Howell (coach's decision) is inactive but operating as the Eagles' emergency third quarterback Sunday versus the Bills.
Analysis: Howell will once again serve as the team's No. 3 option at QB in Week 17. The 25-year-old will only be able to enter the game if both Jalen Hurts and Tanner McKee are sidelined. |
|
A.J. Dillon A.J. Dillon Healthy scratch Week 17
Sun, Dec 28, 2025, 2:03 PM
Dillon (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bills.
Analysis: Dillon has not appeared in a regular-season game since Week 6 against the Giants, and his last opportunity to do so is Week 18 against the Commanders. Tank Bigsby and Will Shipley will continue to serve as the Eagles' rotational running backs behind Saquon Barkley. |

A.J. Brown A.J. Brown Ready to face Bills
Fri, Dec 26, 2025, 3:04 PM
Brown (teeth) practiced in full Friday and does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's road matchup against Buffalo.
Analysis: Brown had his wisdom teeth removed earlier this week, per Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer, but he's now resumed practicing without limitations after having been listed as a non-participant Wednesday and Thursday. The star wideout looks on track to handle his usual role as one of Philadelphia's top playmakers on offense during Sunday's key showdown against the 11-4 Bills. Across his last five regular-season appearances, Brown is averaging seven catches for 95.6 receiving yards per game, with four scores in that span. |

A.J. Brown A.J. Brown Back at practice Friday
Fri, Dec 26, 2025, 11:43 AM
Brown (teeth) is participating in the early portion of Friday's practice open to the media, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Analysis: Brown was listed as a non-participant at practice Wednesday and Thursday, so it's encouraging to now see him back on the field in at least a limited capacity. The star wideout is recovering from a dental procedure undergone earlier this week, but he seems to be trending in the right direction for Sunday's showdown against the Bills. The release of Friday's official practice report will reveal whether Brown is assigned an injury designation for Week 17. |

A.J. Brown A.J. Brown Listed as DNP on Thursday
Thu, Dec 25, 2025, 3:01 PM
Brown (teeth) was listed as a non-participant on Thursday's practice estimate.
Analysis: Brown underwent a dental procedure this week and now has been listed as a 'DNP' on both the Eagles' first two Week 17 injury reports. He thus will have just one more chance to mix into drills Friday before the team potentially tags him with a designation ahead of Sunday's game at Buffalo. Brown has been productive over the last five contests, with a cumulative 35-478-4 line on 49 targets during that span. |

Cameron Latu Cameron Latu Begins week with full practice
Wed, Dec 24, 2025, 9:44 PM
Latu (neck) was a full practice participant Wednesday.
Analysis: A neck stinger forced Latu to miss last Saturday's win over the Commanders. However, with a full practice under his belt to begin Week 17 prep, it's likely he'll be able to return to action Sunday versus Buffalo. Latu typically sees most of his work on special teams, and that may not change moving forward with three other healthy tight ends on the roster. |

A.J. Brown A.J. Brown DNP on Wednesday
Wed, Dec 24, 2025, 4:17 PM
Brown (teeth) didn't practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Brown was listed with teeth on the Eagles' first Week 17 injury report, so he likely underwent some sort of dental procedure Wednesday. He'll have two more chances to mix into drills this week, or else he'll be at risk of carrying a designation into the weekend for Sunday's game at Buffalo. Brown has reeled off a 44-540-4 line on 63 targets in seven contests since Philadelphia's Week 9 bye. |
