The Philadelphia Eagles will play without right tackle Lane Johnson as they face the Dallas Cowboys. The Eagles, holding an 8-2 record, announced their inactives for the game: running back A.J. Dillon, quarterback Sam Howell (third QB), tackle Lane Johnson, cornerback Mac McWilliams, and defensive tackle Ty Robinson.
Center Cam Jurgens is active after missing practice earlier in the week due to a concussion. He was initially listed as questionable on Friday but had no game designation by Saturday.
Wide receiver DeVonta Smith traveled separately from the team for personal reasons but will be active against Dallas. Smith has been among the league’s top wide receivers this season and will go up against a Cowboys defense that has faced challenges throughout the year.
With Johnson out, guard/center Drew Kendall is active for this matchup after being inactive last week against Detroit.
For Dallas, defensive tackle Jadeveon Clowney is available to play despite being limited during practices because of shoulder and neck injuries. Clowney has recorded two sacks so far this season.
The Cowboys’ inactives are wide receiver Jalen Tolbert, running back Jaydon Blue, offensive tackle Hakeem Adeniji, and defensive tackles Jay Toia and Perrion Winfrey. Adeniji was questionable with an illness and has started one game for Dallas this year.
