The weather is nasty in Philadelphia right now and with the rain having a negative effect on the field conditions at Lincoln Financial Field, the Eagles could be without four starters.
Derrick Gunn of NBC Sports Philadelphia is reporting that the Eagles will be without Kamu Grugier-Hill (Concussion), Nelson Agholor (Knee), Derek Barnett (Ankle) and Jordan Howard (neck) for the teams game against the New York Giants.
No Howard , no Grugier-hill …. I’m also told no Barnett , no Agholor tonight

With Agholor out, the Eagles will take the field with just three healthy wide receivers. JJ Arcega-Whiteside will start opposite Alshon Jeffery, with Greg Ward manning the slot. Josh Perkins was called up from the practice squad and could see time as well.
Barnett left the Eagles loss to the Dolphins with an ankle injury and missed the bulk of the week while rehabbing.
Grugier-Hill self-reported concussion symptoms on Thursday, and is currently in the protocol awaiting clearance.
