Starter Watch

Johnson Practicing; Goedert Remains Out

by

The initial Week 13 injury report for the Philadelphia Eagles brings attention to several starters.

Defensive tackle Fletcher Cox (groin), linebacker Zach Cunningham (hamstring), and tight end Dallas Goedert (forearm) were listed as not participating in Wednesday’s estimated report, as well as safety Justin Evans (knee) and tight end Grant Calcaterra (ankle).

Goedert remains out of practice, despite a push to play according to a report from NFL Network.

Cox and Cunningham both started but exited the Week 12 win over the Buffalo Bills, leaving both positions lacking depth.

Evans remains out on the first day of his third and final week of the 21-day practice window. While he returned to practice prior to Week 11, he still remains on injured reserve after missing the entire last week of practice.

The list of those listed as limited was even more crowded with wide receivers DeVonta Smith (knee), A.J. Brown (thigh), and Julio Jones (knee), running back D’Andre Swift (ankle), defensive tackles Milton Williams (concussion) and Jordan Davis (hamstring), and right tackle Lane Johnson (groin).

It is an encouraging development for Johnson, who was a very last-minute scratch last Sunday, while Williams returns to practice in his progression from concussion protocol.
