8 HRS AGO - The latest on the big Week 7 NFC East matchup. The Philadelphia Eagles issued their second official injury report on Thursday in advance of their Week 7 Sunday Night Football game against the Dallas Cowboys. Jalen Mills practiced again today. He’s still on the reserve/Physically Unable to Perform list, which is why he’s not listed on the injury report. The Eagles still have an open spot that they could use to activate him to the 53-man roster. Six players did not participate in practice: DeSean Jackson, Nigel Bradham, Jason Peters, Avonte Maddox, Timmy Jernigan, and Darren Sproles. NFL insider Mike Garafolo says he doesn’t expect Jackson to play this week. The fact that Jackson hasn’t practiced lines up with that sentiment. Not ideal to be missing him once again. Bradham is poised to miss this week’s game as well. The Eagles will likely have Nathan Gerry, Kamu Gruger-Hill, and T.J. Edwards as their three main linebackers. Duke Riley and the recently promoted Alex Singleton figure to Collapse

10 HRS AGO - Brace Hemmelgarn-USA TODAY Sports Sigh. Again? ESPN reporter Josina Anderson dropped an interesting tidbit on Wednesday evening when she tweeted that one Philadelphia Eagles player told her that Howie Roseman “dropped the ball” by not trading for Jalen Ramsey. On Thursday afternoon, Anderson appeared on NFL Live and shared a disparaging quote from her source about Carson Wentz and the Eagles offense (hat tip to 94WIP). Bold emphasis is mine: “Well, with the team being 3-3, obviously, an Eagles source also talked to me about how that offense is functioning.” “One of the things that they said is: ‘We need to make bleep simpler. Sometimes you just need to handle what is manageable.’ They said: ‘Even Peyton Manning knew when to check it down.’” Carson Wentz right now is 38% on passes that travel 15 air yards, has three interceptions on passes like that, which is tied for most in the league. He also has 148 passes on those that are 10 yards or fewer. Right now he has nine touchdowns Collapse

15 HRS AGO - BGN Radio Special! Being part of Bleeding Green Nation has it’s perks. One of those is you get to work with a great group of people that become family over time, and the other is you get access to incredibly fascinating characters that helped shape Philadelphia Eagles’ history. Today I was joined by one of those characters, as former Eagle defensive end Chris Long joined me for a BGN Radio Special to talk about life after football and his partnership with the Crown Royal Water Break. When asked about a possible return to the Eagles (you know I had to ask) and football in general, Long has this to say... “I’m not, like, ever closing the door on football… Listen, I could be 38 and if I feel good like I could go kick somebodies ass and somebody called, it was the right situation, I’d consider it… Like I said, last offseason I was all in to do a couple more, I was playing well enough to do a couple more and I feel good physically but the situation just wasn’t agreeable in the one place Collapse

1 DAY AGO - Photo by John Korduner/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images Week Seven lived up to the expectations of its excellent slate. A handful of exciting games spread across the day with big ranked shootouts, exciting upsets and under-the-radar nail biters. Two high profile teams saw huge victories on Saturday with Oklahoma winning the Red River Rivalry and Wisconsin shutting out yet ANOTHER team this season against Michigan State. These impressive wins were team efforts, but dominant play by top prospects highlighted each victory. To the surprise of no one; The Red River Rivalry turned into a shootout pretty quickly. Oklahoma’s 34-27 victory would not have been possible without a 10 catch, 170 yard and three touchdown effort by CeeDee Lamb. Lamb’s name inversely reflects the damage he does to defenses. Like a wolf in an unsuspecting flock, Lamb cut through the Texas defense like butter all day. starting to think CeeDee Lamb got an infinity stone or something pic.twitter.com/jOvbzRp81Z— Collapse

1 DAY AGO - Photo by Carmen Mandato/Getty Images Great. Earlier this week, NBC Sports Philadelphia’s John Clark reported that “there is big hope” DeSean Jackson can play in this week’s Philadelphia Eagles versus Dallas Cowboys game. NFL insider Mike Garafolo doesn’t sound so optimistic about Jackson’s chances, however. Here’s what Garafolo said during a Wednesday evening appearance on NFL Network: “I know there is some hope that he can come back and play for the Cowboys [game]. [Doug] Pederson has not ruled him out. He certainly could play even if he didn’t practice. However, my indications — or indications I have received on this one — is that I’m not expecting to see DeSean Jackson out there. So, another missed game for Jackson, who clearly wants to be 100% and not risk re-injury when he gets out there.” Not good. The Eagles desperately need Jackson — who’s been dealing with an abdomen injury since Week 2 — back on the field. Philadelphia’s offense is clearly lacking a vertical element. Collapse

1 DAY AGO - The Eagles’ QB also spoke about Doug Pederson’s comments about winning on Sunday. The Eagles were back at practice on Wednesday, and quarterback Carson Wentz spoke to the media afterward about the division rivalry on Sunday night, some parts of the offense that need to improve, and Andre Dillard getting the start at left tackle. He was asked about what made him so mad following a sack by the Vikings last weekend. The QB said that he felt like the defender gave him a little extra in the pile, and he was mad enough to be held back. Wentz also talked about how one of the things he likes best about this group is that, win or lose, they move on to the next. He said they have a lot of confidence and a lot of energy at practice, and they’re excited about Sunday’s game. Here’s what else the quarterback had to say. On the deep passing game Wentz was asked how close the offense was to really connecting in the deep game and how they can improve. He noted that first and foremost he can be better Collapse
