Doug Pederson addressed the media for the final time on Friday and the Eagles head coach said that he’s optimistic Zach Ertz, Fletcher Cox, and Darius Slay can all play against the Packers on Sunday afternoon.

Pederson said that all three players have looked good this week and he’ll wait until after Friday’s final practice of the week to make his decision.

Cox has missed two practices this week with a neck injury, but the Eagles have labeled his absence precautionary and he should be good for Sunday.

Ertz is looking to return to the lineup for the first time since leaving the team’s game against Baltimore with an ankle injury.

Slay popped up on the injury report with a calf injury suffered on Monday night against the Seahawks.
