The Eagles haven’t said whether they will have wide receiver Nelson Agholor back in the lineup for this Sunday’s game against the Bengals and his status may be tied to Jordan Matthews’ health.
Matthews is listed as questionable to play this weekend because of an ankle injury. Matthews left last Monday’s loss to the Packers early in the second half because of the injury, but was able to get on the field for a limited practice on Thursday.
Agholor was inactive for the Packers game after a series of errors over the first 10 games of the season had him feeling mentally lost. One would imagine he’ll be active if Matthews can’t play and he might be part of the gameday roster even if Matthews plays due to the possibility that he’ll leave early due to the injury.
Running back Ryan Mathews has been ruled out for the second straight week because of a knee injury and right tackle Halapoulivaati Vaitai will also sit out with a knee injury.
