Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley and receiver DeVonta Smith are among several prominent players ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London. Smith (hamstring) will be sidelined for the second straight game, while Barkley (hamstring) will miss his first start of the year after exiting early in the first quarter last week against the Los Angeles Rams.
New starting center Drew Kendall (knee) did not practice this week and has been ruled out. He took over center duties in Week 2 for Cam Jurgens, who moved to left guard to account for the absence of Landon Dickerson. Jurgens, a two-time Pro Bowl selection at center, was traded to the Baltimore Ravens on Wednesday, and Jake Majors lined up at center during the portion of practice open to reporters. Safety Marcus Epps (groin) and receiver Hollywood Brown (ankle) have also been ruled out. Edge rusher Jonathan Greenard (ankle) is questionable after not practicing this week, having left the Rams game in the third quarter.
The offense will get a boost from tight end Dallas Goedert, who returns after injuring his knee in Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans. Linebacker Zack Baun has cleared concussion protocol and is expected to play. Quarterback Jalen Hurts appeared on the injury report with a calf injury but carries no designation.
Coach Nick Sirianni confirmed receiver Dontayvion Wicks injured his hamstring during Thursday's practice. Wicks was able to practice in a limited capacity Friday and carries no injury designation.
