Sights and sounds from first half as Eagles hold a 17-13 lead over Steelers

Philadelphia established its passing game and was dominant on defense, but the scoreboard tells a different story as the Eagles hold just a 17-13 lead over Pittsburgh after one half.

Vic Fangio’s defense held the Steelers to just 80 yards of offense on 30 plays in the first half, but two costly Eagles turnovers and two Chris Boswell field goals have Mike Tomlin’s team within four.

With the second half set to begin, we’re looking at sights and sounds from the first half.

The Eagles are 11-2, winners of nine straight games after a 22-16 win over the much improved Carolina Panthers (3-10) at Lincoln Fnaincla Field.

The afternoon saw Saquon Barkley break LeSean McCoy’s franchise record for rushing yards in a season. This set Philadelphia up for a huge intrastate matchup against the Steelers (10-3) in Week 15, which should certainly be the NFL’s game of the week.

With preparation for Pittsburgh set to begin, we’re looking at the top photos from Sunday’s win.

Eagles to place TE Dallas Goedert on injured reserve

Dallas Goedert will miss the next four games after the Philadelphia Eagles place the star tight end on injured reserve

The Eagles will be without Dallas Goedert for at least the next four weeks, and the team could decide to hold their star tight end out until the playoffs.

Goedert suffered a knee injury in the 24-19 win over Baltimore and will be placed on injured reserve.

Goedert was forced to exit with a knee injury late in the Week 13 win, and Jeff McLane of The Inquirer reported that Eagles brass believed their star tight end avoided severe injury.

After a Monday MRI and a missed week of practice, Goedert will sit. The regular season finale against the Giants is the earliest he could return.

Goedert had three catches for 35 yards (11.7 avg) and one touchdown on the afternoon, moving his season totals to 38 receptions for 441 yards (11.6 avg) and two touchdowns. Philadelphia will start preparation for the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, and Goedert could be held out ahead of a huge matchup against the Steelers in Week 15.

Grant Calcaterra is a capable backup with Goedert out, and the team signed C.J. Uzomah and E.J. Jenkins to the active roster from the practice squad.

Dallas Goedert is expected to miss multiple weeks with a hamstring injury. With the team having just Grant Calcaterra and C.J. Ozumah on the active roster, the Eagles signed E.J. Jenkins to the active roster for Week 14.

Jenkins will be the third tight end with Goedert out.

Jenkins (6-6 245) entered the NFL as a rookie free agent with the Jets in 2023 before spending time on the Raiders’ and Eagles’ practice squads.

Eagles OC Kellen Moore weighs in on potential replacement if Dallas Goedert misses time

Eagles OC Kellen Moore weighs in on potential replacement if Dallas Goedert misses time

Philadelphia moved to 10-2 on the season with a 24-19 win over Baltimore on Sunday and received even better news on the injury front afterward.

Dallas Goedert was forced to exit with a knee injury late in the Week 13 win, and Jeff McLane of The Inquirer reported that Eagles brass believed their star tight end avoided severe injury.

Now, after a Monday MRI, Goedert will be week to week, and while he could be a candidate for IR, he’ll be around for the playoffs.

Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore was asked about potential replacements for his star tight end.

“We’ll see how this week progresses. It’s December football; a lot of guys are banged up. That’s how these weeks now naturally progress.”

“We feel fortunate that we have a number of guys with [TE] Grant [Calcaterra] obviously playing an excellent role when he hopped up when Dallas was down earlier. [TE] E.J. [Jenkins] and [TE] C.J. [Uzomah], have both played a few games this year. They’re ready to go. We feel fortunate to have the depth that we have. We’ll see how it progresses.”

Goedert had three catches for 35 yards (11.7 avg) and one touchdown on the afternoon, moving his season totals to 38 receptions for 441 yards (11.6 avg) and two touchdowns. Philadelphia will start preparation for the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, and Goedert could be held out ahead of a huge matchup against the Steelers in Week 15.

If Goedert does miss time, Calcaterra is a capable backup, and C.J. Uzomah was signed to the active roster from the practice squad.

Eagles sign tight end C.J. Uzomah to active roster; add Parris Campbell to practice squad

Philadelphia Eagles have signed TE C.J. Uzomah to the Active Roster and have signed WR Parris Campbell to the Practice Squad.

The Eagles are operating with the idea that Dallas Goedert could miss time with a knee sprain. Hours after waiving Parris Campbell, the team signed tight end C.J. Uzomah to the active roster.

Philadelphia re-signed Campbell to the practice in a corresponding move. In five games for the Eagles, Campbell has six receptions for 30 yards and a touchdown this season.

Goedert was forced to exit with a knee injury late in the Week 13 win, and Jeff McLane of The Inquirer reports that Eagles brass believed their star tight end avoided severe injury.

Uzomah was signed to the Eagles practice squad on October 10 and elevated for each of the last three games (all wins).

Uzomah has played 39 snaps on offense, including a season-high 20 in Sunday’s win over the Ravens.

Eagles’ injury news and updates ahead of Week 11 vs. Commanders

The Philadelphia Eagles released their Wednesday injury report and DeVonta Smith was a limited participant while four others practiced fully

The Eagles held another walkthrough on Wednesday, preparing for a massive Thursday night matchup against the Washington Commanders at Lincoln Financial Field.

One of the NFL’s healthier teams just got healthier with the news that Jordan Mailata would return to the lineup after being activated off injured reserve.

It’s an estimated injury report, but if the Eagles practiced today, Nakobe Dean (groin), Darius Slay (ankle), Bryce Huff (wrist), and Dallas Goedert (ankle) would have all been full participants.

Marshon Lattimore, acquired from the Saints at the trade deadline, will have to wait until after the mini-bye to make his Washington debut. Lattimore has been ruled out.

The Philadelphia Eagles had four players listed as limited participants ahead of Thursday night’s game against the Washington Commanders

The Eagles held another walkthrough on Tuesday as they prepared for a massive Thursday night matchup against the Washington Commanders at Lincoln Financial Field.

It’s an estimated injury report, but if the Eagles practiced today, DeVonta Smith (hamstring), Nakobe Dean (groin), Darius Slay (ankle), and Dallas Goedert (ankle) would not have participated.

Bryce Huff (wrist) and Jordan Mailata (hamstring) all were full participants, with Mailata in line to return to the lineup after four games missed.

Washington held a walkthrough on Monday, so the injury report is just an estimation, but Lattimore, Seibert, and special-teams standout Nick Bellore all missed practice.
