The Philadelphia Eagles issued their third and final official injury report on Friday in advance of their Week 4 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Two players were ruled OUT: Avonte Maddox and Boston Scott.
Maddox suffered an ankle injury during Thursday’s practice. While it doesn't seem to be a long-term issue, the development doesn’t come an ideal time for the Eagles. Maddox would’ve helped the Birds cover Jags leading receiver Christian Kirk, who has seen 74.1% of his targets from the slot (tied for eighth highest in the NFL).
It remains to be seen how the Eagles will handle their nickel cornerback situation with Maddox out.
