One thing has become very clear with the Philadelphia Eagles after just four weeks into the 2026 season: they are banged up—big time.
It got to the point where the Eagles didn't have nine starters on the field by the end of the 24-20 Week 4 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. The Eagles already had seven players ruled out before the game, and four more got hurt during it.
Eagles fans are trying to track every injury heading into the Week 5 London game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Here's a look at all the injuries the Eagles are dealing with right now and when they could return.
Every important Eagles player injury/concern entering Week 5 Jaguars game
Updated as of 5:30 am EST on 10/9/2026
Drew Kendall, C (Knee)
Kendall suffered a knee injury in the Rams game and had to wear a brace to finish. He has not practiced this week, and Jake Majors is in line to start for him
Dontayvion Wicks, WR (Hamstring)
Wicks suffered a hamstring injury in Thursday's practice that limited him in the workout. His status for the Jaguars game is up in the air.
Cam Jurgens, OL (Concussion)
NFL insider Mike Garafolo reported that Jurgens self-reported concussion symptoms after the Rams game and is now on concussion protocol. If he can't play in the Jaguars game, Willie Lampkin would take over at left guard.
Update: Jurgens has since been traded to the Baltimore Ravens
Landon Dickerson, LG (Knee)
Dickerson is currently on IR after his knee injury flared up during optimistic training camp and in the Eagles' Week 1 win over the Washington Commanders. He still has at least one more game he will miss before he is eligible to return, but that might even be a stretch for him to come back, so expect him to be out longer than that.
Eli Stowers, TE (Quadriceps and Hamstring)
Before the season, Stowers was placed on IR with quad and hamstring injuries he suffered late in camp. His return timeline is unknown, but there's a strong chance he'll be redshirted for the season and remain on IR.
Zack Baun, LB (Concussion)
With the short week, Baun couldn't practice or clear the concussion protocol quickly enough to play in the Rams game. The hope is that he can get cleared this week and return for the Jaguars game.
10/9 Update: Baun has been limited in practice all week and is line to play.
DeVonta Smith, WR (Hamstring)
Smith missed his first game of the year after not practicing last week due to a hamstring injury. Reports suggest this could be a multi-week injury, so don't expect him back for the Jaguars game. He could be back in Week 6 or 7.
10/9 Update: Smith has not practiced this week and could miss the Jaguars game.
Fred Johnson, OT (Knee)
Johnson has been dealing with a knee injury and missed the Rams game. His status is unknown, but with new concerns about Lane Johnson, it would be good to see him back on the field soon.
10/9 Update: Johnson has been practicing and is in line to play.
Hollywood Brown, WR (Ankle)
Brown missed a second straight game with the ankle injury that has prevented him from practicing and playing. It's a bit of a mystery how long he'll be out, but since he's not on IR, the hope is that he can return in Week 5 or 6.
10/9 Update: Brown has not practiced this week and does not look like he will play in Week 5.
Marcus Epps, S (Groin)
Epps was a last-second injury that popped up on the report, and he didn't play in the Rams game. Eagles fans will have to wait and see what his status is for Week 5, with an update in the next few days.
10/9 Update: Epps has not practiced this week and doesn't look to be in line to play.
Dallas Goedert, TE (Knee)
Goedert missed his second game of the season against the Rams and hasn't practiced over the last two weeks. He was expected to miss three to four weeks with the injury. It may be too soon for him to return against the Jaguars, but he's probably a game or two away
10/9 Update: Goedert has been limited in practice this week and is in line to play.
Saquon Barkley, RB (Hamstring)
This is Barkley's second injury this season, after he suffered a stinger in Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans. He couldn't return against the Rams, though he hoped he could fight through it; a hamstring injury is not something to mess with.
10/9 Update: Barkley has not practiced this week and most likely will be out.
Quinyon Mitchell, CB (Knee)
Mitchell got hurt in the second half with a knee injury and didn't return, with Jonathan Jones replacing him. The Eagles could really use him, as he's arguably the league's best defender, but fans will have to wait a few days to see what's going on.
10/9 Update: Mitchell has been practicing and is in line to play.
Jonathan Greenard, EDGE (Ankle)
Greenard is injury once again after leaving the game in the second half with an ankle injury. This is his second injury of the year after missing all of training camp and the first two games with a pectoral injury. There is no timetable for him to return at the moment.
10/9 Update: Greenard hasn't practiced this week and most likely won't play.
Tank Bigsby, RB (Knee)
Bigsby went down with a knee injury in the fourth quarter and didn't return. The hope is that he can come back for the Jaguars game, but his status for the game is not known. He has been dealing with being banged up over the last couple of weeks.
10/9 Update: Bigsby is getting surgery on his knee and has been placed on IR. He is expected to miss four to six weeks.

Lane Johnson, OT (Personal)
Johnson was ruled out of the game last-second after missing the game due to a personal reason. He missed time during training camp due to a personal issue as well, which leaves his status completely up in the air with all kinds of retirement rumors flying around. Eagles fans will have to see if he travels with the team to London.
10/7 Update: Johnson has since retired.
