Eagles vs. Buccaneers Final Injury Report:

Eagles vs. Buccaneers Final Injury Report:

Three Philadelphia players ruled out The Philadelphia Eagles released their third and final official injury report on Friday in advance of their Week 2 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.The following players have been ruled out for Sunday’s contest: Carson Wentz and Alshon Jeffery Youth Nate Gerry Jersey , and Darren Sproles.Doug Pederson already announced Nick Foles as Philadelphia’s starting quarterback against the Bucs. There’s some reason to believe Wentz might be able to play in Week 3. Nate Sudfeld will be the backup to Foles in the meantime. As for Jeffery, he’s been limited to individual work during practice. Here’s what Pederson said about his status on Friday:It was originally reported that Jeffery might be able to return in Week 3. We’ll get a better idea if that’s still possible leading up to next Sunday’s game. Sproles suffered a “slight” hamstring tweak during Wednesday’s practice, according to Pederson. Sproles did not participate in practice on Thursday or Friday. With Sproles out, the Eagles will have three active running backs against Tampa Bay: Jay Ajayi, Corey Clement, and Wendell Smallwood. Clement and Smallwood could see the biggest boost in playing time compared to Week 1’s game. Pederson mentioned Clement and DeAndre Carter as punt returner options in place of Sproles.One Eagles player has been ruled questionable for the Bucs game: Shelton Gibson.Gibson returned to practice as a full participant on Friday after being limited on Wednesday and sitting out entirely on Thursday. Although he’s officially listed with a knee injury, Pederson said: “It’s not a knee. It’s a little higher than that. It’s a quad. But he should be fine.” Gibson only played four offensive snaps last week but he did contribute heavily on special teams, including serving as the Eagles’ kick returner. Pederson mentioned Clement and Smallwood as kick returner options if Gibson can’t suit up. The Eagles will be down to just four healthy receivers if Gibson doesn’t suit up: Nelson Agholor Youth Sidney Jones Jersey , Mike Wallace, DeAndre Carter, and Kamar Aiken. Look for Agholor and Wallace to get a lot of playing time on the outside with Carter filling in for the slot receiver role. Aiken, meanwhile, projects as more of a special teams guy. (Hopefully, at least, considering how little the 29-year-old showed offensively this summer.)It helps Philadelphia that the Bucs project to be without both of their starting cornerbacks this week. Hopefully that allows Foles and the receivers to have a more successful connection than they did last week against Atlanta when they only combined for nine receptions and 43 yards. One non-injury update: the Eagles are getting Nigel Bradham and Deiondre’ Hall back this week after both players served suspensions in Week 1. That’s a nice boost for Jim Schwartz’s defense.

KillingsTE Richard RodgersTE Gannon SinclairOT Toby WeathersbyLB Paul WorrilowTAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS INJURY REPORT (FRIDAY)The Buccaneers ruled two players out: starting cornerback Brent Grimes and first-round rookie Vita Vea. With Grimes out and Vernon Hargreaves being placed on injured reserve earlier this week, Tampa Bay will be without both starting corners against Philly. Vea being out Youth Cameron Johnston Jersey , meanwhile, hurts the Bucs’ interior defensive line depth. DeSean Jackson is questionable to play after sitting out Wednesday and being limited on both Thursday and Friday. It’s still unclear if he’s passed through the league’s mandatory concussion protocol. He won’t be able to play until he does. I’m sure we’ll hear more updates on Jackson prior to Sunday’s kickoff. The Eagles’ secondary will have a tough task of containing him deep down the field if he does suit up.Starting defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul, who was held without a single stat in Week 1 despite the fact Drew Brees attempted 45 passes, is also questionable. It sounds like there’s some optimism he’ll play. It’s fair to wonder just how effective he’ll be as he deals with a knee issue. Starting offensive linemen Donovan Smith and Caleb Benenoch were limited participants in practice on Wednesday and Thursday but they were full go on Friday.Ryan Fitzpatrick will obviously start at quarterback for the Bucs with Jameis Winston serving the second game of his three-game suspension. He’s backed up by 28-year-old Ryan Griffin, who has never attempted a regular season pass in his career.OUTCB Brent Grimes (groin)DT Vita Vea (calf)QUESTIONABLEWR DeSean Jackson (concussion, shoulder)DE Jason Pierre-Paul (knee)...RESERVE/SUSPENDED BY COMMISSIONERQB Jameis Winston RESERVE/NON-FOOTBALL INJURYLB Kendell BeckwithRESERVE/INJUREDWR Sergio BaileyCB Amari ColemanDB Maurice FlemingOT Cole GardnerCB Vernon HargreavesDT Stevie Tu’ikolovatuDT Mitch Unrein It’s been a year full of celebrations for the Philadelphia Eagles, and the players and fans of the team. That continued on Sunday, with legendary Eagle Brian Dawkins receiving his Hall of Fame “Ring of Excellence” at halftime against the Panthers.(Lots of ring ceremonies for the Eagles and Dawkins this season!)Dawkins already received his gold jacket Youth Fletcher Cox Jersey , and his bust is now displayed in Canton, Ohio at the Pro Football Hall of Fame, but receiving his ring in Philadelphia was a heartwarming moment for the safety and the city that loves him. During the induction ceremony earlier in the season, Dawkins’ inspiring speech shined a light on mental health, and his personal struggles throughout his NFL career. His strength, on and off the field, is something that embodies what it means to be a Philly icon, and his honesty is part of the reason Dawkins has such a special relationship with the Eagles community.You can read or listen to the full speech here (and I highly recommend it) Womens Brandon Graham Jersey , but here’s just a taste of his appreciation for the great city of Philly and the Eagles organization.And just a reminder, this is Dawkins’ SECOND ring of the year, with the Eagles legend earning a Super Bowl ring since he was serving as a member of the team’s front office last season. (Seriously, I am so glad he ended up with one of these — he deserves it!)Congrats Weapon X and enjoy all the accolades that come your way.From earlier on Sunday:
