The Philadelphia Eagles are going through a whole rollercoaster right now. With the Trade Day deadline underway, and the week 7 clash against the AFC East leaders, Miami Dolphins. Interestingly, both teams are coming in with 5 proud wins and one loss hanging beside them. Moreover, the Eagles are coming off a loss, whereas the Dolphins are not. Amidst all this preparation chaos, Eagles’ star receiver DeVonta Smith and some other players have good news for their team, which will be a huge game-changing move from the Eagles’ end.

This game of win-loss can prove to be an important factor for their upcoming games. Yet the most important factor for any game is its players. Eagles had some of their best players off-field owing to their injuries. However, as the Dolphins hit the road for their upcoming clash, the Eagles have a shocking surprise awaiting them at the Financial Lincoln Field.

Coming in like the silver lining for the Eagles for their next game is their latest injury list. As per ESPN Insider Adam Schefter, vital players for the Eagles, tackle Lane Johnson, TE Dallas Goedert, WR DeVonta Smith, DT Jalen Carter, and CB Darius Slay will be hitting the grounds on Sunday night. These players, who were questionable for Sunday night’s clash against Miami, are now off the injured list. Rookie safety Sydney Brwon will also be on the ground for the first time since he injured his hamstring in week 3.

Additionally, CB Eli Ricks and Darius Slay, who both were suffering from knee injuries, also practiced fully on Friday. Moreover,  defensive tackles, Marlon Tuipulotu (triceps) and Milton Williams (ankle) also had full participation on Friday. With the lineup getting stronger and stronger with each player’s addition in the lineup, the Eagles can walk in the ground with confidence. This confidence will boost as the Dolphins too have some important players on the sidelines due to injury.

However, starting CB Xavier Howard, center Conor Williams, and Alec Ingold are questionable and in limited practice. However, CB Nik Needham was in full participation on Friday, hence can be expected to play against the Eagles. With so many players making a comeback after injuries in week 7 the Eagles will surely put their best foot forward to grab the opportunity, adding another win to their record for the season.
