Mukuba reportedly suffered a fractured ankle<\/a> and seems likely to be placed on injured reserve.<\/p>\nSmith was looked at by trainers at one point in the Eagles\u2019 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. He\u2019s listed with a \u201cshoulder\/chest\u201d injury designation. Guessing the team is taking it easy with him this week to help get him to Friday.<\/p>\n
Guessing the Eagles are also taking it easy on Graham to help get him to Friday.<\/p>\n
Gipson looked to be seriously hurt after the play where he idiotically returned a punt from the 1-yard line and then fumbled. He could be headed to injured reserve.<\/p>\n
The Eagles listed three players under LIMITED PARTICIPATION: Reed Blankenship, Saquon Barkley, <\/strong>and Landon Dickerson.<\/strong><\/p>\nVic Fangio indicated that Blankenship will play on Friday, so, that\u2019s good news for the Eagles\u2019 secondary. With Mukuba out, the Eagles will have Blankenship and Sydney Brown as their starting safeties. Michael Carter II, who lacks extensive safety reps, might be the top backup behind those two. The Eagles could look to temporarily elevate Andre\u2019 Sam from the practice squad for even more safety depth.<\/p>\n
Barkley and Dickerson will probably play on Friday but they\u2019re apparently less than 100%.<\/p>\n
The Eagles listed three players under FULL PARTICIPATION: Adoree\u2019 Jackson, Willie Lampkin, and Myles Hinton.<\/strong><\/p>\nJackson is listed with \u201cgameday concussion protocol evaluation\u201d (first time I\u2019ve seen that one) as opposed to \u201cconcussion.\u201d It was deemed that Jackson did NOT suffer a concussion in the Eagles\u2019 Week 12 loss despite being evaluated for one. Jackson being available to start on the outside allows the Eagles to keep Cooper DeJean at nickel cornerback instead of moving him to the outside and playing Michael Carter II in the slot. So, that\u2019s good news for the secondary outlook.<\/p>\n
Lampkin\u2019s 21-day practice window to return from injured reserve was opened on November 6. The Eagles have to either activate him to the roster or shut him down for the season. Guessing it\u2019ll be the former with an injured player (or two) going on IR to open up a roster spot for Lampkin.<\/p>\n
Hinton\u2019s 21-day practice window to return from injured reserve was opened on November 19. The Eagles don\u2019t need to rush to activate him to the roster.<\/p>\n

CHICAGO BEARS INJURY REPORT (TUESDAY)<\/strong><\/p>\nThe Bears are VERY banged up at off-ball linebacker. Starter Tremaine Edmunds was recently placed on injured reserve. Fellow starter (and old friend) T.J. Edwards is dealing with multiple injuries that have held him out since Week 9. He was listed under DNP on Tuesday. Top backup Noah Sewell missed Week 12 due to an injury. He was listed under DNP on Tuesday. Ruben Hyppolite II, who started in Week 12, got hurt in that game and was listed under DNP on Tuseday.<\/p>\n
The Bears are also banged up at cornerback, maybe. Starters Jaylon Johnson and Kylen Gordon are in their 21-day practice windows to return from injured reserve and they were both listed as full participants on Tuesday. But it\u2019s unclear if they\u2019ll be activated to play against the Eagles. If neither suit up, Tyrique Stevenson would normally be slated to start \u2026 but he was listed under DNP on Tuesday. If both Johnson and Gordon suit up, well, that\u2019s a really big boost for Chicago\u2019s defense. Not that they need it against a pretty uninspiring Eagles offense.<\/p>\n
