Eagles inactives list for Week 15 game vs. Steelers: Philly is mostly healthy
And, just like that, it's showtime! Thank Heaven! After a drama-filled week and all of the hullabaloo that accompanied, it's good to know we can move on from all of that and watch a Philadelphia Eagles game. After all, that's why we are all here, right?
Perhaps you have heard... Despite an emotional week, Philly's game hasn't been cancelled. They won't enjoy a cakewalk either. They welcome the Pittsburgh Steelers to Lincoln Financial Field.
Eagles vs. Panthers Week 14 inactives
The Eagles announced ahead of this one that they have elevated Khari Blasingame from the practice squad on the eve of Week 15's game. He is active. Philly also downgraded wide receiver Johnny Wilson's status to 'questionable' at that time.
Britain Covey was a full participant in Friday's practice but was ruled 'OUT'. Two, days later and 90 minutes before kickoff, the Birds and Steelers released their inactives reports.

Philly enters this one more healthy than they have been in a while. That is a good thing. They will need as many hands on deck as possible to tackle a very game team in the AFC North-leading Steelers. This one should be fun. Expect some tense moments though because it will sure as heck be physical.
