Eagles without DeVonta Smith, Zack Baun as Rams week continues
NBC Sports Philadelphia • • sports
Key Points:
- The Eagles missed several key starters in Thursday's practice ahead of their Sunday game against the Rams, including WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring), LB Zack Baun (concussion), TE Dallas Goedert (knee), OT Fred Johnson (knee), and WR Hollywood Brown (ankle).
- DeVonta Smith has been dealing with a hamstring injury but played Monday night; his status for Sunday remains uncertain, with backup receivers ready if he cannot play.
- Zack Baun's concussion raises doubts about his availability for Sunday, potentially opening a spot for Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at linebacker.
- Several players were limited or did not participate in practice due to injuries, including DT Jordan Davis, S Marcus Epps, and RB Will Shipley, who returned after being a non-participant earlier in the week.
- Defensive backs Kenny Moore II, Jakorian Bennett, and Cole Wisniewski have updated jersey numbers to 23, 21, and 38 respectively.
