This is damned scary.
5. The Eagles are healthier than they were this time a year ago, but they still have some question marks. The following coming-off-surgery players warmed up in pads before the game but didn’t play: defensive end Derek Barnett (shoulder), cornerback Ronald Darby (knee), and guard Brandon Brooks (Achilles). The educated guess here is that Barnett is ready for the season and that decisions on Darby and Brooks will come down to the wire.
These injured players didn’t warm up: defensive tackle Fletcher Cox (foot), linebacker Nigel Bradham (foot), tackle Lane Johnson (knee), tight end Dallas Goedert (calf), and receiver Charles Johnson (ankle). The first four have all said they expect to be ready by the opener. The educated guess here is that it won’t be a formality for some.
These injured players didn’t warm up and aren’t expected to be ready for the start of the season: cornerback Jalen Mills (foot), linebacker Kamu Grugier-Hill (knee), quarterback Nate Sudfeld (wrist), cornerback Cre’Von LeBlanc (foot), tight end Richard Rodgers (foot), and defensive end Joe Ostman (knee). The educated guess here is that those expectations will prove valid.
