Team news: Philadelphia Eagles

The Eagles activated TE Dallas Goedert and WR Jalen Raegor from injured reserve ahead of Sunday’s game against the Cowboys.

With Zach Ertz and DeSean Jackson among the players banged up for the Eagles, this is good timing for their offense as they get one of their big targets over the middle and their rookie speedster back for a huge division battle Sunday night for first place in the NFC East. TE Hakeem Butler was waived.

Eagles WR Alshon Jeffery will not play Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys, according to Jeff Skversky of ABC 6.

The Eagles will have to wait another week for Jeffery to make his season debut. Even when he returns, it is unknown how involved Jeffery will be in the offense.

Eagles RB Miles Sanders will not play Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys, according to Jeff Skversky of ABC 6.

Sanders will miss his second consecutive game, this time against one of the worst defenses in the NFL.

According to Geoff Mosher on Twitter, Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jalen Reagor will pay this Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys.

Reagor's return couldn't have come at a better time, as the Eagles have what could prove to be a pivotal divisional matchup against the Dallas Cowboys this weekend. Reagor has been sidelined since Week 2 with the injury but should step right back into his starter's role. The Eagles drafted him in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft Reagor to start as a rookie, and with all of their injuries at the position, he will get that opportunity. He should open things up for the entire offense, and should be involved as a runner as well. The Cowboys secondary is just what the doctor ordered to get Reagor's rookie season jumpstarted.

Eagles starting running back Miles Sanders sat out of practice Wednesday due to his knee injury.

Sanders missed last Thursday's game and reports at the time suggested he should only miss 1 or 2 games total. The missed practice on Wednesday and the fact that the Eagles have a bye in Week 9 suggest that the team could hold him out one more game to give him a full three weeks to get healthy. Boston Scott took over the majority of the backfield work with Sanders out and would be a RB2 against the putrid Dallas defense if Sanders has to sit again.

Eagles rookie wide receiver Jalen Reagor is returning to practice on Wednesday after undergoing surgery on his thumb.

Reagor's level of participation in practice is yet to be determined and will be the best indicator of whether he might actually return to game action this week. Reagor was attracting some deep targets before hurting his thumb but it is best to take a wait-and-see approach with the rookie wideout in fantasy as he comes back from a prolonged absence.
