Overview
- The team announced Alexander is OUT for Monday night and will remain in Philadelphia rather than travel to Green Bay.
- His status is listed as a knee injury/coach’s decision on the official update.
- Philadelphia traded late-round picks with Baltimore to acquire the former Pro Bowl corner during the bye after he logged two games for the Ravens this season.
- Reporting indicates the holdout allows him to learn Vic Fangio’s defense and give his knee additional time, despite Alexander saying earlier in the week he felt the best he has in a while.
- The Eagles plan to lean on Quinyon Mitchell, Adoree Jackson, Kelee Ringo, and Cooper DeJean on the outside, with Mac McWilliams and Michael Carter in the slot.
