The Eagles will be without a few starting defenders as they host the Dolphins’ top-ranked offense.
Both safety Reed Blankenship (ribs) and nickel cornerback Bradley Roby (shoulder) were sidelined Friday and are officially inactive.
Here is the full list of Eagles inactives:
S Reed Blankenship (ribs)
CB Bradley Roby (shoulder)
QB Tanner McKee
RB Rashaad Penny
TE Albert Okwuegbunam
DT Moro Ojomo
OLB Patrick Johnson
While the Eagles will be without Blankenship and Roby, they will have Darius Slay (knee) back after missing last week and freshman Sydney Brown (hamstring) back after missing the last three weeks.
Jalen Carter (ankle) will also return after missing the Jets game. And Lane Johnson (ankle) is also clear to play after leaving the Week 6 game in the first quarter.
The Eagles signed WR Julio Jones and DB Mekhi Garner from their practice squad on Saturday. Both are active.
Jones’ Eagles debut will be on Sunday. The future Hall of Famer is the NFL’s active leader in receptions and receiving yards but has yet to play in 2023.
Garner is a rookie cornerback from LSU who was pressed into action last week for safety reasons. He will likely be a backup behind Terrell Edmunds and Sydney Brown in this game.
