Overview

  • Cam Jurgens practiced fully Friday, carried no game designation, and is set to play Sunday with a protective knee brace after a Week 7 injury.
  • Philadelphia reported its healthiest week of the season, noting all 53 active-roster players were full participants in Friday’s practice.
  • Detroit ruled out tight end Sam LaPorta (back), cornerback Terrion Arnold (concussion), and safety Kerby Joseph (knee), with right tackle Penei Sewell among those listed as questionable.
  • Sportsbooks list the Eagles as roughly 2.5-point favorites, while national and local prediction panels are split on the outcome.
  • Lions special teams coordinator Dave Fipp said he will keep his family home because of Philadelphia’s hostile environment, underscoring the road challenge at Lincoln Financial Field.
