The Eagles listed cornerback Avonte Maddox as out on their estimated practice reports Wednesday and Thursday and he’ll be getting the same designation after their actual practice on Friday.

Reporters at the open portion of practice shared photos of Maddox on the sideline with a protective boot on his left foot. Maddox missed three games with a toe injury before returning to play in the NFC Championship Game.

Left guard Landon Dickerson was also listed as out the last two days, but he is practicing with a brace on his right elbow Friday.

Unless someone gets hurt in practice, Maddox, Dickerson, and right tackle Lane Johnson (groin) will be the injured players of note for the Eagles to monitor in Arizona next week. Wednesday will bring their first practice and practice report ahead of their Super Bowl date with the Chiefs.

  1. All three will play. It doesn’t happen too often that all 22 starters are available at kickoff .

  2. Maddox played against the 9ers and was effective. Hopefully another 2 weeks of rest will get him even better. He’s a really good slot corner, just gets hurt too much.

  3. Monitor Lane Johnson? He’s a beast! He will play. A 75% LJ is better than any 100% D Lineman the Chiefs have. Ask Bosa. Did he even play Sunday?????

  4. Since the Eagles haven’t faced a Top-5 QB all season it will be interesting to see if they can handle QB #1.

    The Chiefs will win. Mahomet gets 2nd Super Bowl ring. The next GOAT

    Mahomes is a tremendous talent but he needs to survive that nasty Philly pass rush and he has a lingering high ankle sprain. Not saying it’s impossible for KC to win…I just think the Eagles defense will make it difficult.

  6. wow. That’s a very healthy and scary team to go up against. I love my Chiefs but they have a better roster top to bottom. If its a qb duel i like the Chiefs slightly more but if this is a ground game or a defensive battle it tilts for Philly.

    Who is Mahomet? Sounds like he plays in a league in India

  8. Mahomet is the Egyptian god of throwing 2 picks in every playoff game that’s not in Arrowhead.

  9. I was sure the Eagles D line would get after Purdy. But Mahomes is a different story. He rarely gets sacked. And he’ll have another 2 weeks to mend his ankle. The key for the Eagles will be to contain Kelce and to not give up big plays through the air (the latter is basically what Gannon does). I think Mahomes will nickle and dime his way down the field all night long. Just a question of whether KC is scoring TDs or kicking FGs. I’m hoping for the latter.
