Xavier Gipson Xavier Gipson DNP to open week
Tue, Nov 25, 2025, 7:17 PM
Gipson (shoulder) did not participate in Tuesday's walkthrough practice.
Analysis: Gipson suffered a shoulder injury on a punt return late in the fourth quarter of Sunday's overtime loss to the Cowboys. His practice participation over the next two days will provide clarity on his chances of playing against the Bears on Friday. Gipson's absence would result in Will Shipley, Tank Bigsby and Jahan Dotson taking larger roles as returners on kickoffs and punts. |

Saquon Barkley Saquon Barkley Limited to open week
Tue, Nov 25, 2025, 7:16 PM
Barkley (groin) was estimated to be a limited participant at the Eagles' walkthrough Tuesday.
Analysis: Barkley has been managing a groin injury on and off since tweaking his groin in Week 8 versus the Giants, and he has now opened the week on the team's initial injury report. Considering it's a short week for the Eagles, the running back's status at practice will be worth monitoring. Barkley compiled 22 rushing yards on 10 carries while catching seven of eight targets for 52 yards in the team's 24-21 loss to the Cowboys in Week 12. He'll have two more chances to return to practice prior to Friday's contest against the Bears. |

DeVonta Smith DeVonta Smith Absent from walkthrough
Tue, Nov 25, 2025, 7:12 PM
Smith (chest/shoulder) was considered to be a non-participant at the Eagles' walkthrough Tuesday.
Analysis: Smith popped up on the injury report following the team's first gathering of the week, dealing with both a chest injury and a shoulder issue. The wide receiver reeled in six of 11 targets for 89 yards while playing 95 percent of the Philadelphia's offensive snaps in the team's 24-21 loss to the Cowboys in Week 12. Smith will have two more chances to return to the practice field before Friday's matchup with the Bears. |

Darius Cooper Darius Cooper First receptions of 2025 in loss
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 11:40 AM
Cooper caught both of his targets for seven yards in Sunday's 24-21 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: The Tarleton State product played 12 offensive snaps and operated as the Eagles' No. 4 wideout in the Week 12 loss. He finished with the sixth-most receiving yards on the team, ahead of Jahan Dotson (who went without a catch on one target). Cooper has appeared in just seven games this season, contributing on both offense (72 snaps) and special teams (37 snaps). He's expected to play a similar role in the Week 13 matchup against the Bears. |

Jahan Dotson Jahan Dotson No catches in Week 12
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 11:34 AM
Dotson failed to catch his lone target in Sunday's 24-21 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: The 2022 first-round pick was targeted just once and went without a catch for the third time in the Eagles' last five games during Sunday's loss. Dotson has appeared in all 11 of Philadelphia's games this season, catching 10 of 18 targets for 194 yards and a touchdown across 359 offensive snaps. He's expected to operate as the Eagles' No. 3 wideout but carry minimal fantasy value in the Week 13 matchup against the Bears. |

Will Shipley Will Shipley No touches vs. Dallas
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 11:30 AM
Shipley accumulated 106 kickoff-return yards and played seven of the Eagles' 58 offensive snaps in Sunday's 24-21 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: The 23-year-old from Clemson played more offensive snaps than Tank Bigsby (three) but still didn't record an offensive touch. Shipley has now gone without a carry in four of the Eagles' last six games, indicating he's operating as the team's No. 3 running back. He's expected to continue contributing as one of Philadelphia's top kick returners in the Week 13 matchup against the Bears. |
|
Tank Bigsby Tank Bigsby Minimal output in loss
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 11:24 AM
Bigsby rushed once for eight yards in Sunday's 24-21 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: The third-year back from Auburn played just three offensive snaps in the Week 12 loss, his lowest total since the Week 6 loss to the Giants. Bigsby has appeared in 10 games since joining the Eagles in early September, rushing 18 times for 164 yards while also accumulating 187 kickoff-return yards. He's expected to continue operating as the team's No. 2 running back in the Week 13 matchup against the Bears. |

A.J. Brown A.J. Brown Looks good in loss
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 9:41 PM
Brown recorded eight receptions on 10 targets for 110 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-21 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: Brown was a key to the Eagles' hot start on offense, as he posted five receptions for 67 yards and a touchdown combined across the team's first two drives. While he slowed significantly from that pace, Brown still managed to top 100 receiving yards for the third time this season while also recording his first catch of at least 20 yards since Week 7. Philadelphia's passing attack looks likely to remain inconsistent, though a Week 13 matchup against the Bears should present Brown with another opportunity for a solid performance. |

Saquon Barkley Saquon Barkley Struggles continue
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 8:00 PM
Barkley rushed the ball 10 times for 22 yards in Sunday's 24-21 loss to the Cowboys. He added seven receptions on eight targets for 52 yards while also losing a fumble.
Analysis: The Eagles' offense was very efficient to begin the game, but Barkley was never able to get on track. He averaged 3.2 yards per carry or less for the third straight game, with his longest gain on the ground going for only seven yards. Positively, Barkley topped four receptions for the first time since joining the Eagles, though even that was tarnished by a fumble midway through the fourth quarter in Dallas territory. Barkley should have a chance to bounce back in a Week 13 matchup against the Bears, but he's struggled to get on track for most of the season. |

Jalen Hurts Jalen Hurts Three scores in loss
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 7:40 PM
Hurts completed 27 of 39 passes for 289 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in Sunday's 24-21 loss to the Cowboys. He added seven rushes for 33 yards and two additional scores.
Analysis: Hurts appeared to be in for a huge fantasy performance, as all three of his touchdowns came in the first 19 minutes of game time. While the offense stalled from there, Hurts logged both his most pass attempts and completions of the season to post his second-highest yardage total of the campaign. That led to an excellent fantasy performance, though it masked his ongoing inconsistency as a passer, as he had topped out at 183 passing yards over his previous three contests. Hurts also continues to rely primarily on touchdowns for his rushing production, racking up fewer than 35 rushing yards in seven straight games. |

Xavier Gipson Xavier Gipson Questionable to return Week 12
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 6:36 PM
Gipson (shoulder) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Cowboys.
Analysis: Gipson sustained the injury late in the fourth quarter, when he fumbled the ball on a punt return. Will Shipley and Jahan Dotson would be in line for return duties on kickoffs and punts if Gipson is not cleared to return. |
|
Sam Howell Sam Howell Emergency QB for Week 12
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 2:17 PM
Howell (coach's decision) is inactive but serving as the Eagles' emergency third quarterback against the Cowboys on Sunday.
Analysis: Howell is not permitted to play Sunday unless both Jalen Hurts and Tanner McKee leave the game due to injury, illness or suspension. Howell has yet to play in a regular-season game this year. |
|
A.J. Dillon A.J. Dillon Healthy scratch Sunday
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 2:15 PM
Dillon (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.
Analysis: The running back last suited up in Week 6 against the Giants. Saquon Barkley, Tank Bigsby and Will Shipley remain ahead of him on the depth chart. |
|
Cameron Latu Cameron Latu Just one snap on offense Sunday
Wed, Nov 19, 2025, 9:50 AM
Latu went without a target on his lone snap on offense and played 17 snaps on special teams in Sunday's 16-9 win over the Lions.
Analysis: Latu has been active for every game since Week 2 but remains buried on the depth chart at tight end behind Dallas Goedert, Grant Calcaterra and Kylen Granson. He's yet to play double-digit snaps on offense in any of his nine appearances and has yet to draw a target. |

Kylen Granson Kylen Granson Targeted twice in Week 11
Wed, Nov 19, 2025, 9:48 AM
Granson played 15 of the Eagles' 72 snaps on offense and recorded a four-yard reception on two targets in Sunday's 16-9 win over the Lions.
Analysis: Though he saw two more targets than fellow tight end Grant Calcaterra, Granson's 21 percent snap share placed him well behind Calcaterra, who was on the field for 47 percent of snaps. Granson has played in all 10 of the Eagles' games to date, but he's played more than half of the snaps on just one occasion and has recorded three catches for 10 yards on four targets throughout the campaign. |
|
Grant Calcaterra Grant Calcaterra No targets Sunday
Wed, Nov 19, 2025, 9:45 AM
Calcaterra went without a target while playing 34 of the Eagles' 72 snaps on offense in Sunday's 16-9 win over the Lions.
Analysis: Though he was on the field for nearly half of the Eagles' snaps, Calcaterra ran just three routes on the night. So long as top tight end Dallas Goedert stays healthy, Calcaterra looks like he'll be limited mostly to a blocking role on offense. |
|
Xavier Gipson Xavier Gipson No usage on offense in Week 11
Wed, Nov 19, 2025, 9:43 AM
Gipson didn't play a snap on offense and returned one kickoff for 22 yards and one punt for zero yards in Sunday's 16-9 win over the Lions.
Analysis: Gipson was active for a fourth game in a row and appears to have emerged as the Eagles' preferred option on both kickoff and punt returns. However, the 24-year-old has largely been an afterthought on offense since the Eagles claimed him off waivers from the Giants in late September. He's played just six total snaps on offense, recording one catch for three yards. |
|
Darius Cooper Darius Cooper Barely plays in Week 11
Wed, Nov 19, 2025, 9:40 AM
Cooper went without a target while playing three of the Eagles' 72 snaps on offense in Sunday's 16-9 win over the Lions.
Analysis: The undrafted rookie out of Tarleton State was active for the third game in a row but is still in search of his first career reception. He finished a distant fourth among Philadelphia wideouts in playing time Week 11, with his four percent snap share trailing DeVonta Smith (97), A.J. Brown (93) and Jahan Dotson (32). |

Jahan Dotson Jahan Dotson Two catches in win
Mon, Nov 17, 2025, 10:31 PM
Dotson caught a pair of passes for 43 yards in Sunday's 16-9 victory over the Lions.
Analysis: Dotson's second catch of the day, a 34-yard reception down the sideline after Jalen Hurts was forced out of the pocket, helped dig the Eagles out of tough field position on their own four yard line late in the fourth quarter. He's made the occasional key play for the Eagles this season and is averaging an impressive 19.4 yards per catch, but he's caught a total of just 10 passes in 10 games. Sunday's contest marked just the second time all year that he's caught multiple passes. |
|
Will Shipley Will Shipley Zero touches against Lions
Mon, Nov 17, 2025, 10:10 PM
Shipley had zero carries and zero catches against the Lions on Sunday.
Analysis: One week after Shipley touched the ball a season-high six times on offense, he went an entire game without a single touch, something that's happened on two other occasions already this year. He only played seven offensive snaps, one fewer than fellow backup running back Tank Bigsby. |
