During the game <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/vikings-news-justin-jefferson-sets-ridiculous-record-only-he-and-randy-moss-can-claim" rel="noopener">against the Vikings</a>, running back Boston Scott was forced to leave the contest and <a href="https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/1702505488791769330" rel="noopener">was evaluated for</a> a concussion, per Adam Schefter of ESPN.</p><p>The injury further diminished Philadelphia’s running back room, which was already growing thin by the time the game started. Thankfully for the Eagles, D’Andre Swift, who was traded to Philadelphia by the Detroit Lions this offseason, stepped up during Thursday’s game, recording 62 rushing yards during the first half.</p><p>Still, Eagles fans will certainly hope that Boston Scott is able to avoid a concussion and will be able to return soon. Scott has been with the Eagles since 2018 and started two games a season ago during Philadelphia’s Super Bowl run. During the Super Bowl loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, Scott took three carries for eight yards and also caught one pass for nine yards.</p><p>He resigned with the team this past March on a one-year contract.</p><p>Prior to suffering the injury against the Vikings, Scott had been having a solid game, carrying five times for 41 yards to help complement Swift and running quarterback Jalen Hurts in the backfield.</p><p>After the game’s conclusion, the Eagles will have eleven days off before hitting the road to take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday Night Football on September 25.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The Eagles are <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/eagles-news-kenneth-gainwell-james-bradberry-thursday-night-football-injury" rel="noopener">pretty beat up</a> heading into this game, and with their starting running back Kenneth Gainwell set to <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/eagles-news-philadelphia-official-kenneth-gainwell-james-bradberry-injury-decisions-week-2-clash-vikings" rel="noopener">miss the game</a>, it sounds like Rashaad Penny will be getting called on for this one.</p><p>Philly’s crowded backfield was sorted out in Week 1, with Gainwell seemingly being the guy leading the pack, and Penny surprisingly being a healthy scratch. That’s not the way many fans expected things to shake out, but it’s clear the pecking order will be different in Week 2 with Gainwell out, and it looks like Penny is <a href="https://twitter.com/jeff_mclane/status/1702050280521523671?s=12&amp;t=bm8qRt18zuhlXFzV7rKRAQ" rel="noopener">expected to be active</a> for this game after sitting out Week 1.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Josh Jobe the likely starter for James Bradberry at CB.</p><p>Justin Evans, Terrell Edmunds and Sydney Brown are currently the available safeties.</p><p>Rashaad Penny should be active at RB after not dressing Week 1.</p><p>LB Nakobe Dean already out and on IR. <a href="https://t.co/F6CwQB2CC8">https://t.co/F6CwQB2CC8</a></p><p>— Jeff McLane (@Jeff_McLane) <a href="https://twitter.com/Jeff_McLane/status/1702050280521523671?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 13, 2023</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Gainwell paced the Eagles backfield with 15 carries in Week 1 against the New England Patriots, while D’Andre Swift and Boston Scott each logged one apiece. It seems like Swift is set to take over the lead duties with Gainwell out, but chances are both Scott and Penny will be receiving some carries as well if they do end up being active for this one.</p><p>Philadelphia truly employs a running back by committee group, meaning it’s tough to know how the carries will get split up in Week 2 now that Gainwell is out. But after his surprising absence in Week 1, it looks like Rashaad Penny should be on the field for this one, although how much he actually ends up playing is as good as anyone’s guess.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

They’re doing so knowing they’ll likely be without <a href="https://twitter.com/MikeGarafolo/status/1702005670516588631" rel="noopener">three of their starters</a> in just their second game of the season.</p><p>Running back Kenneth Gainwell nor cornerback James Bradberry are expected to play, as they deal with a rib injury and a concussion, according to Mike Garafolo. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/vikings-eagles-week-2-injury-report-kenneth-gainwell-marcus-davenport" rel="noopener">Gainwell was Philly’s leading rusher</a> in Week 1, gaining 54 yards on 14 carries. No other Eagles running back had multiple carries, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/eagles-news-kenneth-gainwell-injury-update-dandre-swift-fantasy-football-prospects" rel="noopener">as D’Andre Swift</a> and Boston Scott each had one carry.</p><p>Bradberry is a starting corner and was second-team All-Pro last season. He suffered the head injury late in the Week 1 win, in which he allowed three catches for 38 yards and a touchdown. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/eagles-predictions-week-2-thursday-night-football-vikings" rel="noopener">The Eagles have some depth</a> at the cornerback position, though the room is full of inexperienced players, albeit talented ones.</p><p>The likely candidates to start in place of Bradberry are Josh Jobe and Kelee Ringo. Jobe played in 11 games for the Eagles last season, while Ringo, the rookie, impressed in camp but saw no defensive snaps in Week 1.</p><p>Bradberry may not be the only one out for the Eagles secondary, as safety Reed Blankenship is nursing a rib injury and may not be available Thursday night. The Eagles have another rookie, Sydney Brown, waiting to get his opportunity and could start at safety if Blankenship can’t go.</p><p>There is some <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/eagles-news-philadelphia-mixed-injury-updates-fletcher-cox-james-bradberry-vikings-matchup" rel="noopener">good news for Philly</a> though, as defensive tackle Fletcher Cox should be ready to go. He did not practice on Monday but participated in a limited capacity on Tuesday. The six-time Pro Bowler will be on the field for his 12th home opener with the Eagles.</p><h2><b>What this news means for Philly</b></h2><p>The Eagles lost a lot of pieces from the defense during the offseason. Six starters left via free agency and Philly had to pick up the pieces and remain an elite defensive unit in the face of Super Bowl expectations. The Eagles’ defense played fairly well against the New England Patriots but had mistakes that led to points for the opposition.</p><p>Without Braberry and/or Blankenship, Philly’s secondary could be exposed by Minnesota’s burners on the outside. Darius Slay will likely be on Justin Jefferson for most of the game, but rookie Jordan Addison is a threat as well.</p><p>The Eagles will have a lot of inexperience in the defensive backfield, but players that they’ve identified as impact pieces for this season and beyond. They’ll be tested on a short week but will have the Philly crowd behind them to give them an extra boost.</p><p>As for the running backs, the Eagles will probably activate Rashaad Penny for the game, putting him alongside Swift and Scott. Swift will likely get the bulk of the carries, though all three should get their fair share of touches.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

In Week 1, the Eagles used two early takeaways to jump out to a commanding lead over the New England Patriots. Despite a furious Patriots comeback, the Eagles held on for the win. The Vikings didn’t put their best foot forward and lost to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at home. Ahead of this Week 2 matchup, let’s take a look at <a href="https://www.vikings.com/news/injury-report-week2-eagles" rel="noopener">each team’s injury report</a> following Tuesday’s practices.</p><h2><b>Vikings: </b></h2><p>The Vikings actually didn’t practice on either Monday or Tuesday. There are three notable players with a designated status on the injury report, but participation can be taken with a grain of salt because, again, there wasn’t actually a practice</p><p><b>OLB Marcus Davenport: </b>Marcus Davenport missed his Vikings debut on Sunday with an ankle injury suffered in last week’s practice. Davenport spent five years with the New Orleans Saints before <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/vikings-2023-nfl-free-agency-signin" rel="noopener">signing a one-year deal</a> with Minnesota this offseason. He posted a career-high of nine sacks in 2021, but injuries have plagued him throughout much of his career.</p><p>Tuesday’s injury report listed Davenport as “limited” as he is still working through the ankle issue. Against a strong Eagles run game, the Vikings could certainly use their starting linebacker back on the field. Davenport is the most important member on the Vikings’ injury report.</p><p><b>C Garrett Bradbury: </b>Garrett Bradbury left Sunday’s season-opener after just seven snaps, citing a back injury. The Vikings listed him as a non-participant for the second straight day. He looks unlikely to play against a dominant Eagles defensive front, which isn’t a good sign for the Vikings’ offense.</p><p><b>LT Christian Darrisaw: </b>Christian Darrisaw also left Sunday’s game with an ankle injury but returned shortly after. He was listed as “limited” on Tuesday’s injury report. Again, the Eagles’ defensive line is very formidable, so the Vikings need their own offensive line to be healthy.</p><p> </p><h2><b>Eagles:</b></h2><p>The Eagles also didn’t have a full practice Tuesday, given it’s a short week. They had a walkthrough, and injury report designations are essentially estimations.</p><p><b>LB Nakobe Dean: </b>The <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/eagles-news-nakobe-dean-injured-reserve" rel="noopener">Eagles moved Nakobe Dean</a> to the injured reserve, so he will miss at least four weeks. Dean suffered a foot injury in Sunday’s game against the Patriots. The good news is he won’t require surgery, but the Eagles will be without him for some time. Dean impressed in the season opener, so this is a tough blow for the Eagles. Luckily, they have a lot of depth in the front seven.</p><p><b>DT Fletcher Cox: </b>This is Fletcher Cox’s 13th NFL season, but he’s still a force to be reckoned with. The Eagles upgraded him from a non-participant on Monday to “limited” on Tuesday for an issue with his ribs. The day-to-day upgrade is a promising sign for Thursday’s participation.</p><p><b>CB James Bradberry: </b>James Bradberry is in concussion protocol, so Eagles HC Nick Sirianni has no update. He did not participate for the second straight day, and it looks like the Eagles will be without him in Week 2. Against the dangerous 1-2 punch of Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison, Philadelphia’s secondary might be in trouble.</p><p><b>S Reed Blankenship: </b>Another starting defensive back on the injury report is Reed Blankenship. Listed with a rib injury, he did not participate for the second straight day.</p><p><b>RB Kenneth Gainwell:</b> Finally, starting running back Kenneth Gainwell was a DNP at Tuesday’s walkthrough. The Eagles have depth at running back, so if he isn’t good to go on Thursday, Philadelphia will turn to D’Andre Swift, Boston Scott and Rashaad Penny.</p><p> </p><h2><b>Fantasy football implications: </b></h2><p>The Eagles’ defense is a nightmare for opposing offenses, particularly in the run game. However, it looks like they will be without at least three starters in Dean, Bradberry and Blankenship. The Vikings’ offensive line is also banged up however, and the Eagles’ defensive depth outlasts that of the Vikings’ protectors. This Vikings O-line was already a weak unit, so expect them to struggle, particularly on the interior, if Garrett Bradbury can’t go.</p><p>That mean Kirk Cousins will have limited time to throw, and Alexander Mattison will struggle to get it going, particularly on inside run concepts.</p><p>Still, expect Justin Jefferson to continue to get his against a damaged Eagles secondary. Obviously, Jefferson is an auto-start regardless of who the opposing defense is.</p><p>As for the Eagles, the biggest change here is at running back. Gainwell emerged as the Eagles’ leading back in Week 1, getting the majority of the carries, yards and targets out of the backfield. In fact, outside of Gainwell and Jalen Hurts, the Eagles only had two carries on Sunday.</p><p>D’Andre Swift is listed second on the depth chart and has the most upside of the Eagles’ remaining running backs. He could be a flex option against a weak Vikings defense with Gainwell likely out of the picture. However, if Gainwell is able to play, Swift is not a serviceable option until proven otherwise.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
