An Updated Look at The Eagles Injury Report

Following the Eagles comeback win over the Giants, there have been many updates to the Eagles injury report, and there have been players added. 

DeSean Jackson

After finally being good to go last night, DeSean Jackson got hurt again but this time it was on a dirty hit on a punt return.

Jackson was clearly in pain, and it really sucks to see his Eagles career potentially end this way. Today, it was revealed that he has a high ankle sprain, and head coach Doug Pederson said today that he would be out a significant amount of time. 

Lane Johnson 

If there’s one thing Lane Johnson continues to show, it’s that he tough. It was recommended that he should sit out another week, but Johnson knew how important this game was, and decided to play through his ankle injury. You could tell he was in pain last night and now, he has another injury on top of his current one. Johnson suffered a grade 1 MCL sprain, but he shouldn’t miss much time. 

More specifically: While Lane Johnson won’t miss much time with the MCL sprain alone, he also has been battling an ankle injury. With the two injuries combined, he would benefit from time off the field so they can heal. https://t.co/FtFH7O2wrn

Jalen Reagor

The Eagles first-round pick is two weeks ahead of schedule and would bring a big boost to this Eagles offense. Reagor was playing as one of the best rookie wide receivers in the class before tearing his UCL in his thumb. It is still unclear if Reagor will play against Dallas next week, but I’d bet that he will try his hardest to be on the field. If he can’t go next week, Reagor should be back after the bye. I can’t wait to see him take the field with Travis Fulgham and the rest of this receiving core. 

Some good injury news today

I’m told cast is off Jalen Reagor’s thumb 👍🏼and he is catching balls

He is ahead of schedule

Original timeline was he would hopefully return after the bye week November 15. We will see pic.twitter.com/iAtDTKY6oF

Hassan Ridgeway

One of the key parts of this team so far has been their defensive line, and Hassan Ridgeway was a pretty important piece. It was revealed today by Doug Pederson that Ridgeway will miss the rest of the season with a biceps injury. 

Coach Doug: DT Hassan Ridgeway suffered a biceps injury on Thursday night and will miss the remainder of the season. Loss hurts depth at DT. T.Y. McGill is the fourth DT now. Still a strong group.#FlyEaglesFly

T.J Edwards

Linebacker T.J Edwards is expected to be back next week against Dallas and should be a big help to this weak linebacker

#Eagles are expected to get LB T.J. Edwards (hamstring strain) back next week vs. #Cowboys, so at least some positive injury news for the team.
