Nakobe

Dean

Carter, Nakobe Dean (hamstring), Marcus Epps (concussion), and Jaelan Phillips (ankle) all were taken off the final injury report and will play against the 49ers. EDGE Azeez Ojulari (hamstring/IR) is questionable, but practiced in full today and looks likely to join them. The Eagles will summon all the defensive firepower they have against the 49ers.

Eagles LB Nakobe Dean (hamstring), S Marcus Epps (concussion), OLB Azeez Ojulari (hamstring) and OLB Jaelan Phillips (ankle) are all practicing fully. Carter’s continued participation is a good sign. Hopefully, he upgrades to full participation on Friday. The Eagles face the 49ers on Sunday.

Eagles LB Nakobe Dean (hamstring) and S Marcus Epps (concussion) were limited as well. Carter and Dean are seemingly on track to play. Epps is best viewed as questionable at this time. The Eagles face the 49ers’ talented, yet somewhat banged-up offense on Sunday.

Carter, Jaelan Phillips (ankle), and Nakobe Dean (hamstring) were all ruled out and should all get better around the time Philadelphia’s first Wild Card playoff report comes out. Until then, it will be Philadelphia’s reserves dealing with Josh Johnson, Chris Rodriguez, and “Bill” Croskey-Merritt. Week 18 is here.

We already expected the Eagles to rest most starters this week. Hopefully, this is just not a serious issue. The Eagles have locked up the NFC East’s title already. Eagles LB Jaelan Phillips (ankle) and LB Nakobe Dean (hamstring) are also rehabbing injuries.

The Eagles will get DT Jalen Carter back for this one, but Dean being out is tough in a game that figures to be run-heavy. Lane Johnson also remains sidelined, but the Bills don’t have a ferocious pass rush, so it may not be a huge issue in this one.

Carter is practicing, as expected, theoretically putting him on track to play in Week 17 against the Bills. The Eagles’ difference-making interior defender has been sidelined since undergoing procedures on both shoulders on December 1st. The Eagles (10-5) are jockeying for playoff position. His return is consequential. Eagles LB Nakobe Dean (hamstring) is not practicing.

Carter was added to the injury report yesterday, so his absence is hardly surprising. The Eagles’ defense is a talented unit overall, but losing one of the best defensive linemen in football is a big deal. The Giants will likely attack the Eagles’ interior defensive line via an aggressive rushing attack. The Eagles also declared LG Landon Dickerson, TE Grant Calcaterra, CB Mac McWilliams and WR Xavier Gipson inactive for Week 6 against the Giants. On the plus side, LB Nakobe Dean (knee) will make his 2025 debut tonight.

He’ll make his season debut against the Giants on Thursday and likely be eased in after suffering a torn patella tendon in the playoffs last year during Philadelphia’s Super Bowl run. Jihaad Campbell has been just fine so there’s no rush for Dean to assume full-time duties.

Linebacker Nakobe Dean (knee) is also listed as questionable. Carter was added to the injury report on Wednesday as a limited participant before being listed as questionable. A surprise addition to the injury report this late in the week is typically a bad sign, and the fact that the Eagles have a short turnaround to Thursday’s game will only compound the issue. Philly will still be favored by at least a touchdown with or without Carter, but his absence would make life a little easier for Jaxson Dart in his third NFL start.
