Their clinic session was declared by the Philadelphia Eagles on Wednesday due to a early season injury record that was lengthening.
Instead, on what would typically be a practice evening for the NFL team head trainer Doug Pederson opted to hold a walk-through.
“Number one, with the men that are a little nicked up that have a opportunity to play with this football game, I need them to find the rep in practice. Normally we go a padded afternoon,” said Pederson.
“And , two, we have some young guys who may have to play with, and they’re also servicing the defense or the offense, and thus this way it allows everybody to still practice and maintain their focus and get our job done that we must get done today.”
One of the Eagles are tight end Dallas Goedert, recipients DeSean Jackson along with Alshon Jeffery, running back Corey Clement and defensive tackles Malik Jackson and Tim Jernigan.
After shooting a snapshot in Sunday’s 24-20 loss to the Atlanta 22, tender ribs are being dealt with by tight end Zach Ertz.
Pederson stated in lost Sunday’s game against the Detroit Lions, Jackson will be joined by Jernigan.
“Well, we know Tim’s going to be a tiny bit more,” Pederson said. “The other men are daily, more daily. They are doing well and we will have an update at the close of the week.”
