The Philadelphia Eagles will try to win the NFC East without Pro Bowl tight end Zach Ertz and Jalen Mills, as both are out for the team’s game against the New York Giants.
The Eagles just released their inactive list and Mills is among four starters who will not play against the Giants.

Ertz’s season is in jeopardy, as he’s been ruled out with a fractured rib and a lacerated kidney. Ertz will miss his first game since Week 14 of the 2017 season.
Nelson Agholor remains out with a knee injury and he’ll miss his fourth consecutive game.
Lane Johnson and Mills were questionable all week with ankle injuries and it looks as if Rasul Douglas and Sidney Jones will start at cornerback for the Eagles.
With Johnson is out, Halapoulivaati Vaitai will again start at right tackle. He started the past two weeks and finished the Week 14 win against the Giants after Johnson suffered a high-ankle sprain.
