Some notes
- Thursday’s big news is that second-year wide receiver Xavier Worthy was upgraded from did not participate to limited. The Athletic’s Jesse Newell caught a picture of the wideout on the practice field. Worthy left Week 1’s Chargers game with a dislocated shoulder. While the team hasn’t provided an official timeline for his return to play, our best guess is that he could miss few as 3-4 weeks.
- Just as on Wednesday, rookie wide receiver Jalen Royals was held out of practice as he continues to deal with tendonitis in his knee. On Wednesday, head coach Andy Reid said that Royals would “probably not” be back for Sunday’s game, calling it “a stretch” to think he could play so soon.
- Meanwhile, guard Trey Smith (knee/illness) and linebacker Drue Tranquill were both upgraded from limited to full participation in Wednesday’s practice.
- The biggest name on the Eagles’ injury report is tight end Dallas Goedert, who did not participate on either Wednesday or Thursday because of a knee sprain. There is a good chance he will not play on Sunday.
- Like Worthy, Philadelphia running back Will Shipley (oblique) left the Eagles’ Week 1 game after only a few snaps. He and backup quarterback Tanner McKee (thumb) did not participate on Wednesday, but were both upgraded to limited participation on Thursday. Tackle Cameron Williams (shoulder) was added to Thursday’s report as a limited participant.
