Overview
- Will Shipley left the Week 5 London game with a foot injury and the Eagles confirmed he would not return to that contest.
- Saquon Barkley was ruled out before the game with a hamstring injury and Tank Bigsby is on injured reserve after surgery, leaving the team short at running back.
- Philadelphia elevated Dameon Pierce and Carson Steele from the practice squad days earlier and is now relying on those players to handle the backfield workload.
- The Eagles managed just 16 rushing yards on 10 carries in the London game, a shortfall tied to the injuries and recent turnover on the offensive line.
- The situation creates tactical uncertainty for upcoming games, with short‑term statuses for Barkley and Shipley unclear and fantasy and roster decisions likely to shift week to week.
