On the final day of practice before their Saturday battle against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 16, their best defender returned to practice for the first time since the loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. LB Micah Parsons had missed the first two practices with an illness, but he was able to participate in parts of the practice. Unfortunately as one comes back another leaves.
Cornerback Trevon Diggs missed practice on Friday with an illness. It is currently 50/50 on their participation on Saturday. Whomever lines up for the defense will not have to face Eagles QB Jalen Hurts. The Pro Bowl QB was ruled out due to his shoulder injury.
