Eagles Down Two Key Starters At Practice

Second-year backup Tyler Steen got the left guard work, a position where Dickerson was named second-team All-Pro this season.

Tight end Dallas Goedert (ankle) was at the session but did not have his helmet and was not participating. He did catch some passes on the side while the rest of the team was warming up.

Both Jurgens, a first -time Pro Bowl selection this season, and Goedert were estimated as not participating at a Wednesday walkthrough to start the week.

If Jurgens is unable to play Sunday, the Eagles’ offensive line would most likely be from left to right: Jordan Mailata, Steen, Dickerson, Mekhi Becton, and Lane Johnson.

Goedert missed seven games this season, first with a hamstring injury and then a sprained knee, but returned for the Week 18 win over the New York Giants and has been the Eagles leading receiving through the first two games of this postseason with eight receptions for 103 yards and a touchdown.

If Goedert can’t go, backup Grant Calcaterra would be the TE1 in this game.

The Eagles signaled concerns with both players with their two practice squad moves Wednesday, bringing in 32-year-old veteran Cam Erving, who has experience at center, and tight end Nick Muse.

All of the Eagles who were listed as limited to start the week were practicing on Thursday: quarterback Jalen Hurts (knee), cornerback Quinyon Mitchell (shoulder), receiver AJ Brown (knee/rest), receiver Britain Covey (neck), Johnson (knee/rest), and edge rusher Josh Sweat (ankle/rest).

Both Hurts and Mitchell have said they expect to play after injuries in last week's divisional-round win over the Los Angeles Rams. Hurts was wearing loose sweats, probably purposefully, making it difficult to see if the QB had a brace on his left knee.
