SH0CK: Eagles Injury Crisis: 6 Out, 2 Doubtful, and 8 Questionable Ahead of Cowboys Showdown-HN

Sunday’s rivalry game between the Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys lost some of its luster after Philly’s brutal loss to the Washington Commanders last week.

Now just about locked into the No. 2 seed for the upcoming NFC playoffs, the Eagles have less to play for in Week 17, and can thus take a more cautious approach with key injured starters — like quarterback Jalen Hurts, who remained in the NFL’s concussion protocol as of Friday morning.

While Philly still needs one win, or one Commanders loss, over the final two weeks to clinch the NFC East division title, the Cowboys are left playing out the string after being mathematically eliminated from the playoffs in Week 16. That makes Dallas’ lengthy injury report difficult to discern, as the team listed seven different players as questionable on Friday’s injury report.

Who’s in, who’s out and who’s starting at quarterback for this NFC East matchup? Here’s a full team-by-team injury breakdown, with the latest updates off of Friday’s practice reports:

Eagles Injury Report: Jalen Hurts listed under DNP, Kenny Pickett limited -  Bleeding Green Nation

Eagles vs. Cowboys: Full injury designations
Dallas Cowboys
Out
WR CeeDee Lamb (shoulder)
The Cowboys are reportedly shutting Lamb down for the season with his nagging shoulder injury, allowing the superstar wide receiver to rest and enter the offseason fully healthy. Brandin Cooks, Jalen Tolbert and KaVontae Turpin figure to lead the Cowboys’ wide receiver group going forward.

DB Kemon Hall (hamstring)
Hall was carving out a key role on special teams, but has been tending to a hamstring issue since last week’s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Hall has yet to play a defensive snap this season, but he did have a pick-six against the Raiders during the preseason.

CB Amani Oruwariye (foot)
Oruwariye played a season-high 71 snaps against the Bucs last week, but he was ruled out on Friday after injuring his foot in practice. Andrew Booth Jr. has been up the past couple of weeks, and he could see a boost in reps on Sunday.

Eagles Quarterback Situation Remains Murky Ahead Of Clash Vs. Cowboys

Doubtful
OG T.J. Bass (thigh)
Bass got the start at right guard in Week 15, but hasn’t been back in the lineup since due to a thigh injury. Swiss Army Knife Brock Hoffman slid over to the right side last week against the Bucs and figures to play there again against the Eagles’ tough defensive front.

Questionable
LB Nick Vigil (foot)
Vigil somewhat surprisingly got his first start of the season at inside linebacker last week, and held up well over 69 snaps. He’s been managing a foot issue for weeks, but appears to have passed former starter Damone Clark on the Cowboys’ depth chart. He should be on track to play after logging a limited practice session on Friday.

LB Eric Kendricks (calf)
Kendricks was held out of last week’s game against the Bucs, thrusting Vigil into the starting lineup. He’s trending towards playing this week after practicing in a limited capacity on both Thursday and Friday.

WR Jalen Tolbert (finger)
Tolbert was limited in practice all week due to a finger issue. Rookie sixth-round pick Ryan Flournoy could be in for an extended look with Lamb out and Tolbert’s status in question. Flournoy caught all three of his targets for 41 yards last week against Tampa Bay.

LT Chuma Edoga (toe)
Edoga, working at left tackle for the Cowboys in recent weeks, was added to the injury report on Thursday with a toe injury. The issue is not considered serious and Edoga should be available for another start on Sunday. He was on the practice field in a limited capacity on Friday.

S Donovan Wilson (knee)
This is a new injury for Wilson, as he was listed on last week’s practice report with an elbow issue. The ailment is not expected to impact Wilson’s playing time on Sunday. He got in a capped practice session on Friday and is trending towards playing.

WR Jalen Brooks (knee)
Last year’s seventh-round draft pick has seen an uptick in playing time this season, and he caught his first career TD pass in Week 15 against the Carolina Panthers. With Lamb out and both Tolbert and Brooks uncertain, trade deadline acquisition Jonathan Mingo could step into an elevated role against the Eagles.

OT Asim Richards (ankle)
Richards was in the mix for the Cowboys on offense before landing on injured reserve with an ankle issue in Week 12. He appears to be nearing a return after practicing in full all week. Dallas would have to make a roster move, though, as Richards currently remains on IR.

Philadelphia Eagles
Out
QB Jalen Hurts (concussion)
This comes as no surprise, as the Eagles signed QB Ian Book to their practice squad on Thursday. Head coach Nick Sirianni told reporters on Friday that Hurts had not yet cleared the NFL’s concussion protocol. Kenny Pickett will get the start against Cooper Rush and the Cowboys, with Tanner McKee serving as Philly’s backup QB.

WR Britain Covey (neck)
Covey’s situation continues to be a head-scratcher. He’s been listed with a neck injury for weeks, yet entered Friday as a full pa
