The Eagles held a walkthrough on Wednesday so this chronicle is an estimation.
Hurts had a helmet and went through stretching however did not throw the ball in some unspecified time in the future of person drills. He watched as backup Kenny Pickett threw passes.
Brown suffered a knee injury within the first half of in opposition to the Jaguars and overlooked the whole second half of on Sunday. He went through early stretching on Wednesday after which caught passes in some unspecified time in the future of receivers drills.
Earlier this season, Brown overlooked three games with a hamstring injury and the Eagles went 1-2 in these games. Their losses to the Falcons and Saints — the handiest losses of the season — got here without Brown within the lineup.
Goedert has overlooked the closing three games with a hamstring injury. The Eagles didn’t assign him on IR so the hope needed to be that he would whisk over fewer than four games. So it looks adore there’s a possibility Goedert may perhaps presumably well return in Dallas this weekend. Without him, the Eagles’ top tight ends were Grant Calcaterra and Jack Stoll. After discover on Wednesday, Goedert said issues are trending against him taking part in.
Homicide overlooked Sunday’s game in opposition to the Jagaurs with a groin injury. Isaiah Rodgers filled in. Nonetheless if Homicide is willing to reach again to action, he’ll over again be the starter opposite Quinyon Mitchell at open air cornerback.

Without Jordan Mailata (IR), Fred Johnson, Mekhi Becton and Cam Jurgens, the Eagles needed to toy with a couple of varied mixtures on the offensive line on Wednesday. The handiest fixed became once Lane Johnson at gorgeous form out. Landon Dickerson labored at both left guard and center and when he became once at center, he became once replaced at left guard by Tyler Steen, who has a bunch of versatility. Steen moreover performed some left form out on Wednesday.
Earlier this season when Jurgens overlooked some snaps, Dickerson filled in at center so it’s not a disagreeable concept to be obvious that he will get to snap the ball infrequently.
VanSumeren suffered a concussion and may perhaps presumably well restful must clear the NFL’s concussion protocol earlier than his return. While VanSumeren hasn’t performed on protection as a linebacker this season, he does hang a extensive function on special teams and has carved out a function as a fullback on offense.
