As the Eagles activated center Jason Kelce from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday, the Cowboys announced that cornerback Trevon Diggs (illness), safety Jayron Kearse (hamstring), and running back Tony Pollard (foot) were downgraded to out ahead of the team's trip to Philadelphia.
Safety Donovan Wilson (illness) is not traveling with the team, but remains questionable. Dallas has 11 players on the Reserve/COVID-19 list: linebacker Francis Bernard, defensive tackle Quinton Bohanna, cornerback Anthony Brown, defensive tackle Trysten Hill, safety Malik Hooker, cornerback Jourdan Lewis, linebacker Keanu Neal, defensive tackle Osa Odighizuwa, linebacker Micah Parsons, tackle Tyron Smith, and cornerback Nahshon Wright.
The Eagles ruled out running back Miles Sanders for Saturday's game against Dallas with a fractured hand.
In the team's estimated injury report, the Eagles held a walkthrough on Thursday, Sanders would not have participated in practice along with guard Landon Dickerson (thumb) and tackle Lane Johnson (rest/knee). Dickerson and Johnson are questionable for Saturday night.
Twelve Eagles remain on the Reserve/COVID-19 list: linebacker Genard Avery, defensive tackle Fletcher Cox, safety Marcus Epps, tight end Dallas Goedert, guard Nate Herbig, running back Jordan Howard, center Jason Kelce, cornerback Avonte Maddox, safety Rodney McLeod, running back Boston Scott, linebacker Alex Singleton, and tight end Jack Stoll. Those players would need to be activated in order to be eligible to play on Saturday night.
Sirianni said on Thursday that "our goal is to win this football game against a rival" but he did not rule out resting starters against the Dallas Cowboys. The Eagles have clinched a Wild Card berth, regardless of Saturday's outcome. The Eagles can finish as either the No. 6 or the No. 7 seed regardless of Saturday night's result.
4 Cowboys are questionable for Saturday; 2 added to Reserve/COVID-19 list
Pro Bowl cornerback Trevon Diggs and safety Donovan Wilson were added to the Cowboys' injury report on Thursday with an illness. Same as the Eagles, the Cowboys offered an estimation since they did not hold a full practice, but neither would have practiced.
Safety Jayron Kearse (hamstring) and running back Tony Pollard (foot) are questionable for the Cowboys.
Dallas added two players to the Reserve/COVID-19 list – cornerback Anthony Brown and Pro Bowl left tackle Tyron Smith.
