Eagles Injury List Getting a Little Beefy
Published:
It’s not 2020 or 2019, but the Birds’ injury report came out on Wednesday and it’s getting longer:

Couple of notes:
- Shaun Bradley and JJAW are important special teams pieces. Bradley has played 80% of the ST snaps and JJAW at 54%. JJAW did some work off to the side on Wednesday.
- Per E.J. Smith at the Inquirer, Jordan Mailata was wearing an elbow brace at practice, but no more knee brace.
- Doesn’t seem to be much info out there about Hargrave’s shoulder, which has been bugging him for a bit now. He played 31 snaps Sunday, as the Birds rested starters in the fourth quarter. Previously this year, they’ve given veterans that midweek rest day, and he played last week despite getting that day off.
- If Harris can go on Sunday, Marcus Epps drops back to the bench. He played 62 snaps in Detroit, which was the most of any defensive player.
- Nate Herbig would come in for Driscoll if he can’t go.
- Reagor’s snaps will go to Greg Ward.
- McPhearson has barely played this season. I wrote months ago that you cannot draft or trust a cornerback out of Texas Tech or the Big 12 (yes I know he transferred).
- Miles Sanders remains on IR.
Next report coming out later today.
