The Philadelphia Eagles are heading into a crucial NFC East matchup against the Washington Commanders with questions about the status of A.J. Brown.

Despite a late-game scare in a victory against the Pittsburgh Steelers, where James Pierre’s questionable hip-drop tackle raised concerns, Brown appears to have avoided any serious injury.

His appearance on the injury report had fans holding their breath, but the star receiver seems ready for action.

When reporters pressed Brown about his condition, he initially played it coy.

After taking his time to respond, he cracked a smile and kept it simple.

“I’m playing,” he said,...

Week 16 game status updates.

The Philadelphia Eagles issued their third and final official injury report on Friday in advance of their Week 16 road game against the Washington Commanders.

A.J. Brown and Landon Dickerson will play despite being limited in practice the last two days. They do not have a game status.

Brown did not practice on Wednesday with a “rest” designation. He was then limited on Thursday and Friday with a “knee/rest” designation. Brown seems to be less than 100% but he’s going to play.

Dickerson was also listed as limited due to a “knee/rest” designation on Thursday...

The Philadelphia Eagles can check one achievement off the list of season goals with a win over the Washington Commanders on Sunday.

The Birds are a 3.5-point favorite and the over/under sits at 45.5.

A win nets the Eagles the NFC East title, and, at minimum, it allows them to keep pace with the Detroit Lions in the race for the No. 1 seed.

In the first meeting with Washington, the Birds covered the four-point spread and the under of 49 points hit. The cover was part of a current Eagles run in which they are 5-1 against the spread...

Can Vic Fangio stifle the Commanders’ promising rookie quarterback once again?

It seems like everyone in the NFL is fired up about playing the Eagles. It tends to happen when you are the best team in football, and no team is playing better than the 12-2 Eagles right now.

Washington Commanders’ rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels certainly wants another crack at the No. 1 defense in the NFL after Daniels and the Commanders fell to the Eagles, 26-18, on November 15. This time, the Commanders will be playing for their postseason lives this Sunday at 1 p.m. at Northwest Stadium.

With 14 rushing touchdowns in 14 games, Jalen Hurts is poised to break the QB record - PFT

The Philadelphia Eagles got the 27-13 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers last Sunday.

However, it came at a cost for Eagles Pro Bowl quarterback Jalen Hurts, who wore two separate shoe colors during the game.

On one foot, he wore a shoe that had Eagles’ green; on the other, he wore a much lighter shade of green.

According to NFL Network insider Tom Pelissero, the league has now fined Hurts $5,628 for violating its uniform and equipment rules.

As Pelissero notes, Hurts was officially fined for wearing a shoe that’s not one of the Eagles’ “constitutional team colors.”

What’s funny is that the NFL social people basically shouted this out in a tweet, then deleted it:
