The latest news on who’s in and who’s out.
The Philadelphia Eagles officially announced the inactives list for their 2024 NFL Week 8 game against the Cincinnati Bengals.
The following Eagles players WILL NOT PLAY: Dallas Goedert, Mekhi Becton, Eli Ricks, Tanner McKee, and Trevon Keegan.
Goedert was ruled out on Friday’s final injury report. His absence leaves the Eagles with just two healthy tight ends: Grant Calcaterra and Jack Stoll.
Becton was ruled out on Friday’s final injury report. His absence means Tyler Steen will start at right guard.
Ricks and Keegan are healthy scratches. Ricks, active for only two games this season, has played just eight snaps ... all on special teams. The rookie Keegan has yet to be active for a game.
Darian Kinnard is notably active for just the second time this season. The depth offensive lineman did not play a snap in his first game.
Rookie wide receiver Ainias Smith is active for his first NFL game after being activated from injured reserve.
Under the NFL’s third quarterback rule, McKee is only allowed to play if both Jalen Hurts AND Kenny Pickett leave the game due to injury.
