The Eagles offensive line will have to tangle with Cardinals defensive end Calais Campbell on Sunday. Campbell and the Cardinals defense won’t have to tangle with Darren Sproles.
The running back is inactive because of the knee injury he suffered against the Giants in Week Six. Sproles had been optimistic about his recovery since suffering the injury, but the knee apparently wasn’t ready for action coming off of a bye week. The Eagles do get linebacker Mychal Kendricks back after several weeks on the sideline with a calf injury.
Campbell is active for Sunday’s game, marking his return to the lineup after missing two games following a knee injury suffered against the Broncos in Week Five. Campbell was listed as questionable after a week of limited participation in practice and should provide a boost to the Arizona defense as they try to avoid their second loss of the season.
Running back Marion Grice is also active for the Cardinals for the first time this season. Quarterback Logan Thomas, linebacker Thomas Keiser, linebacker Glenn Carson, defensive tackle Alameda Ta’amu, defensive tackle Bruce Gaston, guard Earl Watford and tight end Troy Niklas are inactive for Arizona.
Wide receiver Brad Smith, quarterback Matt Barkley, defensive back Jaylen Watkins, center Jason Kelce, offensive lineman Dennis Kelly and defensive lineman Taylor Hart are also inactive for Philly.
