Overview
- The Eagles opened 21-day practice windows on Wednesday for Landon Dickerson, Jakorian Bennett, Grant Calcaterra and Eli Stowers so each can resume practice while on injured reserve and be evaluated for activation.
- Running back Saquon Barkley and wide receiver DeVonta Smith did not practice on Wednesday and are listed as non-participants, leaving both players questionable for the Week 6 game against Carolina.
- Coach Nick Sirianni declined to commit to a timeline for Dickerson’s return to the starting left-guard job, saying the team will evaluate how he looks before deciding whether to reinstate him immediately.
- Philadelphia’s rebuilt offensive line has struggled this season, allowing a very high pressure rate and forcing inexperienced players like Willie Lampkin into key roles, a problem that has helped stall both the run game and play-action attack.
- The team also signed defensive back Dean Clark to the practice squad to boost depth, but the Eagles enter Week 6 at 2-3 and under intensified national scrutiny over coaching and offensive performance.
