Nelson Agholor (knee), Derek Barnett (ankle), and Lane Johnson (ankle) were all non-participants.
Johnson is week to week with a high ankle sprain, while Agholor has missed the last two weeks.
With Agholor still uncertain, JJ Arcega-Whiteside and Greg Ward are the only healthy wide receivers on the roster, with Robert Davis getting promoted up from the practice squad.
Alshon Jeffery placed on Injured Reserve with a foot injury
The 2019 NFL season is officially over for Eagles star wide receiver Alshon Jeffery, as the team placed their top wideout on injured reserve with a foot injury.

Jeffery left Monday night’s game against the New York Giants and was carted to the locker room following the non-contact injury. NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo reported that Jeffery’s season was over after the wideout heard a “pop” in his foot on Monday.

Now thin at wide receiver, the team announced it signed wideout Robert Davis from the practice squad to the active roster. The 6-foot-3 Davis had one catch for 11 yards in three games with the Washington Redskins this season.
Doug said Nelly's status still unknown for Sunday so you would think they would add a WR or two. Or three. Robert Johnson, Marken Michel and Marcus Green all on practice squad.
And Eagles are about due to bring back Jordan Matthews too.
Eagles WR Nelson Agholor, RB Jordan Howard, DE Derek Barnett all INACTIVE vs. Giants
The Philadelphia Eagles have officially released their list of inactives for their game against the New York Giants and they’ll be without four starters.
The Eagles will play with only three wide receivers, ensuring that JJ Arcega-Whiteside and Greg Ward each get another start.
The Eagles will play more two-tight end sets while moving Josh Perkins into the lineup at times and likely shifting Zach Ertz into the slot or out wide when the formations fit.
Linebacker Kamu Grugier-Hill (concussion) was already ruled out.
Eagles to be without Derek Barnett, Nelson Agholor for game vs. Giants
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.
The New York Giants and Philadelphia Eagles square off in Week 14, and here are five reasons Big Blue could come away with the win.
The New York Giants are currently on an eight-game losing streak and are heading to Philadelphia (where they haven’t won a game since 2013) to take on the struggling Eagles on Monday night.
The Eagles are on a three-game losing streak of their own after an embarrassing 37-31 loss to the lowly Miami Dolphins last week. At 5-7, they are watching their divisional championship hopes dwindle away if things continue to trend in the wrong direction.
With the Dallas Cowboys in a rut of their own at 6-6, the Eagles absolutely need to win this game, which arguably makes the Giants even more dangerous in the role as spoiler.
Here are five reasons why the Giants can pull off an improbable victory in a city they haven’t won in since 2013.

Eli Manning
Rookie Daniel Jones seemingly unseated Manning from his 16-year starting quarterback throne with the Giants for good in Week 3 when he took over. Unfortunately, Jones suffered what they are calling a high ankle sprain last week against the Green Bay Packers, despite finishing out the contest.
On Monday Pat Shurmur initially stated that Jones did not require any further tests on the ankle Monday expecting him to be fine. However, on Wednesday Shurmur announced that Jones would not practice while also revealing he suffered a high ankle sprain.
Paging doctor Manning, it now looks more than likely that Eli will start on Monday for the first time since being benched in favor of Jones in Week 3.
While Jones has shown promising signs this season, he still has the expected growing pains of a rookie quarterback. With Eli, the Giants get a veteran Hall of Famer, who has been around the block a few times and has battled it out with the Eagles for close to 20 years. He also eliminates the turnover issues that come with Jones in his first year.
It is expected that Eli will return with a chip on his shoulder and make the most of his surprise playing time. But, keep in mind that Manning has struggled against the Eagles in his career with a 10-22 record, and a 59.3% completion percentage. The Eagles have won their last five meetings with the Giants and nine of their last 10 games. Monday could give us a better idea of whether Pat Shurmur pulled the plug on Eli too early this season. We shall find out.
The Philadelphia Eagles have ruled LB Kamu Grugier-Hill out against the New York Giants and listed three other starters as questionable.
The Philadelphia Eagles will be without at least one starter against the New York Giants on Monday Night Football, and could be without at least three others when kickoff arrives.
After failing to clear league protocol, Philadelphia officially ruled linebacker Kamu Grugier-Hill out for the Week 14 contest. Replacing Grugier-Hill will be rookie T.J. Edwards, who has recorded 17 tackles in 12 games this season.
Meanwhile, the Eagles also announced that wide receiver Nelson Agholor (knee), running back Jordan Howard (shoulder) and defensive end Derek Barnett (ankle) are all questionable.
Both Agholor and Barnett were unable to practice this week and head coach Doug Pederson said each player would be a game-time decision.
If Agholor is unable to play, Joshua Perkins will serve as the team’s fourth receiver behind Alshon Jeffery, Greg Ward and J.J. Arcega-Whiteside. And if Barnett is unable to go, Vinny Curry and Josh Sweat will share time as fill-ins.
Pederson seemed more optimistic about the status of Howard despite the fact that he still hasn’t been cleared for contact.
Finally, right tackle Lane Johnson missed his consecutive practices this week, but Pederson said that was not injury related and that Johnson will play against the Giants.
3 Philadelphia starters listed as questionable for game vs. Giants
The Philadelphia Eagles released their final injury report before the Monday night contest against the New York Giants. Three Eagles, including Jordan Howard, Nelson Agholor and Derek Barnett are listed as questionable and game-time decisions.
Derek Barnett, Nelson Agholor to be game-time decisions for Eagles
The Philadelphia Eagles could be without two of their key starters, as Nelson Agholor and Derek Barnett are expected to be game-time decisions for Monday night’s contest against the New York Giants.
Doug Pederson said Agholor and Barnett haven't been ruled out. Will be game-time decisions. Kamu still in concussion protocol.
Pederson also said that Kamu Grugier-Hill is still in the concussion protocol and could miss the contest as well.
Pederson said he’s comfortable with just three healthy wide receivers on the 53 man roster if Agholor can’t play since tight end Joshua Perkins was called up from the practice squad last week.
Derek Barnett, Nelson Agholor and Kamu Grugier-Hill were among 3 Eagles players to not practice
The Philadelphia Eagles enter Monday night in decent health but could be looking at game-time decisions for three integral players. The Birds released their Friday injury report, with Nelson Agholor, Derek Barnett and Kamu Grugier-Hill all missing practice for a second straight day.
Kamu Grugier-Hill reported symptoms and was placed in concussion protocol on Thursday, but the extra day of preparation should be of benefit for the versatile linebacker.
Barnett is nursing an ankle injury, while Nelson Agholor was out with a knee again. Jordan Howard still has not been cleared for contact and could miss his fourth game in a row.
