Who’s Questionable for Sunday?

Michael Bennett, DE

Michael Bennett has been dealing with a foot injury for a few weeks now. The good news is that he has yet to miss any games because of it. Bennett has been missing practice lately, but it doesn’t really matter much. A veteran player like Bennett knows what it takes to be productive on the field. Being listed as questionable does nothing but throw Washington off. This guy is playing.

Jordan Hicks, LB

Seriously, when is Jordan Hicks never on the injury report? He’s most likely going to play this week as Doug Pederson mentioned that Friday was a rest day for him. But still, Hicks cannot seem to stay healthy. As he’s missed some time with a calf injury, he was experiencing some inflammation on Friday, which landed him on the questionable list. We should expect him to play, but his calf injury is undoubtedly concerning.

Jason Kelce, C

Losing Jason Kelce could be the worst case scenario for the Eagles on Sunday. Kelce has been playing lights out this year and is undoubtedly one of the best centers in the game. For a team that hasn’t had the most protective offensive line, Kelce has done an excellent job from a personal standpoint. His knee injury doesn’t seem severe, but it’s not exactly great either.

Jason Peters, OT

Jason Peters has been injured every single game this season. At the age of 35, his body is barely holding up. The Bodyguard won’t quit, though. Peters may not be playing at an All-Pro level, but this guy is tough as nails. Coming off of a major knee injury, Peters has suffered torn biceps, and is now dealing with a quadriceps injury as well. It would be shocking to see him sit out this week, but he did miss a majority of last week’s game though, so we’ll have to wait and see what the Eagles decide to do when game time is here.
