The Philadelphia Eagles took a different route on Wednesday with just a walkthrough practice, crafting an injury report based on estimations rather than actual playtime. But don’t be fooled, folks―there’s a lot riding on these updates!
Johnson and Smith Hit Hard
The towering right tackle Lane Johnson and the electric wide receiver DeVonta Smith were noted as no-goes for on-field activities. Their helmets must’ve felt like anvils after both players suffered concussions during last Sunday’s victorious clash against the Saints. With the clock ticking, and the showdown with the Buccaneers looming on the horizon, these fellas need to pass the league’s protocols to make it to the field. But hey, seeing them in action is as certain as seeing white on rice—if they get cleared, that is!
Brown’s Hammy Woes Continue
Ah, our boy A.J. Brown. The wide receiver’s on a streak―not the good kind. He was penciled in for a sideline spot once again on Wednesday. Brown’s tried to run off a hamstring injury, but it’s like dancing with a limping rooster. He hasn’t graced the practice field since the Friday night lights of Week Two against the Falcons. Two games missed so far, and the team’s prayers are that he pulls through sooner rather than later.
Guarding the Trenches
On the battlefront of the offensive line, right guard Mekhi Becton (finger) and left guard Landon Dickerson (wrist) were registered as limited participants. Talk about gritting through the pain, huh? These guys are anchoring the line like seasoned captains steering through a storm.
Meanwhile, cornerback Darius Slay (knee) was logged as a full participant, bringing a sigh of relief to Eagles fans. It’s like having your maestro back in the orchestra, ready to orchestrate some defensive symphonies on the field.
- Lane Johnson: Concussion, No Practice
- DeVonta Smith: Concussion, No Practice
- A.J. Brown: Hamstring, No Practice
- Mekhi Becton: Finger Injury, Limited Practice
- Landon Dickerson: Wrist Injury, Limited Practice
- Darius Slay: Knee Issue, Full Practice
With the upcoming game against the Bucs, all eyes are set on these developments. Let’s see if the Eagles can fly high or if they’re in for a rough landing. Stay tuned, football fanatics! This story’s hotter than a jalapeño in the desert!
