Week 4 game status updates.
The Philadelphia Eagles issued their third and final official injury report in advance of their Week 4 road game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The Eagles ruled one player DOUBTFUL: Adoree’ Jackson.
Jackson missed practice on Wednesday before being limited on Thursday and Friday. With Jackson unlikely to play and Jakorian Bennett on injured reserve, the Eagles will likely start Kelee Ringo at cornerback. It’ll be interesting to see how he performs. The Eagles originally wanted Ringo to be their Week 1 CB2 starter but he struggled in training camp and fell out of the competition entirely. Now the 2023 fourth-round pick gets a chance to redeem himself.
Zack Baun, Jihaad Campbell, Lane Johnson, Will Shipley, and Tanner McKee were listed without a game status.
They all participated in full on Friday. And so they’ll be ready to play on Sunday.
Baun and Campbell missed practice on Wednesday before being limited on Thursday.
Johnson was limited on Wednesday before being upgraded to full go on Thursday.
Shipley is set to play for the first time since getting banged up in Week 1. He’ll resume his role as RB2 behind Saquon Barkley.
McKee practiced in full for the first time since getting injured late in training camp. Seems like he might be ready to be QB2 behind Jalen Hurts for the first time this season.

TCF reverted to IR after being waived/injured; the Eagles could eventually cut him with an injury settlement … like they recently did with Lewis Cine. Hinton and Lampkin are eligible to return from IR after Week 4. Williams is eligible to return from IR after Week 5. Nolan Smith, Bennett, and Cooper are eligible to return from IR after Week 7 but we’ll see if the Eagles wait until after the Week 9 bye to activate them. BVS and Wilson are out for the season.
TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS INJURY REPORT (FRIDAY)
The Bucs ruled two players out: six-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Mike Evans and depth safety/special teams contributor Christian Izien.
Losing Evans isn’t ideal for the Bucs but they do still have rookie standout Emeka Egbuka and Chris Godwin, who is questionable but was full go on Friday and is expected to play.
Speaking of players ruled questionable and expected to play, Baker Mayfield and Tristan Wirfs are also expected to suit up.
Starting defensive lineman Logan Hall missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday before being upgraded to limited on Friday.
The Bucs are missing starting offensive linemen Luke Goedeke and Cody Mauch, who are on injured reserve. Starting defensive lineman Calijah Kancey is also on IR.
