The entire active roster was good to go for Sunday's win over the Cowboys.

Up big in the fourth quarter, the Eagles were able to rest their starters for Thursday night.

Now, another starter is closing in on a return.

The Eagles announced on Monday that they are opening the 21-day practice window for franchise left tackle Jordan Mailata.

Mailata was placed on Injured Reserve following the Week 6 win over Cleveland with a hamstring injury. Fred Johnson came off the bench for Mailata in the last four games, all wins for the Eagles.

Even with the missed time, Mailata is Pro Football Focus' third-best graded offensive tackle this season, behind only Miami's Terron Armstead and Detroit's Penei Sewell. All-World right tackle Lane Johnson, in case you're wondering, is seventh. Mailata is the second-best pass protector and fourth-best run-blocking tackle, according to PFF's metrics.

The massive Australian (6-foot-8, 365 pounds) is in his seventh season with the Eagles after being selected in the seventh round of the 2018 NFL Draft with limited football experience. Mailata took over as a starter in 2020 after two redshirt seasons while transitioning from the game of rugby to football. He was rewarded with a long-term contract extension just prior to the start of the 2021 season and landed another extension during the 2024 offseason. According to PFF, Mailata has only allowed one sack so far this season.
