The Eagles are getting healthy at the right time and have several big-named starters set to return to the lineup in Week 18.
With Sunday’s matchup against the Giants now a must-win situation, head coach Nick Sirianni told the media that Pro Bowl quarterback Jalen Hurts is trending in the right direction with one practice to go.
Philadelphia is taking a more cautious approach with safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson, but the expectation is that he’ll return to the lineup as well.
A win (or a tie) against the New York Giants clinches the No. 1 seed in the NFC playoffs, home-field advantage, and the lone bye in the NFC during Wild Card Weekend.
