Overview

  • The Eagles exit their bye with A.J. Brown and Saquon Barkley practicing fully and Nolan Smith slated to come off IR to play Monday night.
  • Trade acquisitions Jaire Alexander, Michael Carter II, and edge rusher Jaelan Phillips are available as Vic Fangio reshapes Philadelphia’s defense.
  • Center Cam Jurgens and cornerback Adoree’ Jackson did not practice Friday and appear unlikely to play, putting Brett Toth in line again at center.
  • Green Bay leads the NFC North at 5-2-1 but is coming off a 16-13 loss to Carolina and must replace tight end Tucker Kraft after a season-ending ACL injury.
  • The matchup pits the Packers’ elite pass protection (11 sacks allowed) against a refreshed Eagles rush unit, while Green Bay’s inconsistent run game draws scrutiny against a defense many expect to test on the ground.
