Philadelphia Eagles vs. New York Giants inactives: DeSean Jackson, Lane Johnson, Avonte Maddox set to return The Philadelphia Eagles are set to return some key contributors against the New York Giants on Thursday night.

Ready for Thursday night Maddox (ankle) does not carry an injury designation for Thursday's divisional contest against the Giants.

Impact Maddox was limited in Wednesday's practice, but it appears as though he's on track to resume handling his usual starting role at cornerback. Philadelphia's secondary has struggled with Maddox out of the lineup the past three weeks, but the unit will now have an opportunity to get right against Daniel Jones and the Giants.

OCTOBER 21, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Estimated as LP Maddox (ankle) was listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's practice estimate.

Impact Maddox has missed the last three games, and his estimated LP doesn't necessarily provide optimism for a return for Thursday's game versus the Giants, as the cornerback was limited all week leading up to a Week 6 loss to the Ravens, for which he ultimately was inactive. Still, he'll likely carry a questionable tag into Thursday's divisional clash. If he's unable to go, Nickell Robey-Coleman is expected to start in his place again.

Ruled out again Maddox (ankle) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Ravens.

Impact Maddox managed to string together a trio of limited practices this week, but he wasn't able to do enough to avoid missing his third straight game. On a brighter note for the Eagles, Darius Slay (concussion) is listed as questionable to face the Ravens and has cleared the league's five-step concussion protocol.

Limited showing Wednesday Maddox (ankle) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice.

Impact Maddox was forced to miss his second straight game Sunday with the ankle issue, but the fact that he was able to practice in some capacity is a positive sign. With Darious Slay stuck in concussion protocol, Cre'von LeBlanc, Nickell Robey-Coleman and Craig James are the only healthy cornerbacks on the depth chart at the moment. Maddox will hope to progress to full practice before having a chance to suit up in Sunday's game against Baltimore.

Ruled out for Week 5 Maddox (ankle) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Steelers.

Impact Maddox will miss a second straight game due to his lingering ankle injury, the severity of which has kept him from practicing since late September. Cre'von LeBlanc stands to continue to handle expanded defensive snaps at cornerback as long as Maddox is sidelined.

OCTOBER 9, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Still missing practice Maddox (ankle) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice.

Impact Maddox suffered the ankle injury in Week 2's tie against Cincinnati, and has yet to take the field since then. This news certainly isn't good for the Pittsburgh product, as he was only expected to miss a few weeks. If he's forced to miss any more action, expect Cre'von LeBlanc to continue to fill in at cornerback for the time being.

Eagles down 4 receivers for game vs. 49ers

The Philadelphia Eagles will be without four key receivers for their game against the San Francisco 49ers

Won't play Sunday Maddox (ankle) was ruled out for Sunday's game at San Francisco.

Impact The 24-year-old is expected to be sidelined 1-to-2 weeks after picking up the ankle injury against the Bengals, so it's not a surprise he won't play versus the 49ers. Cre'von LeBlanc should fill in at cornerback for the Eagles during Maddox's absence.

OCTOBER 2, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Who will the Eagles use to replace Avonte Maddox at outside cornerback? The Eagles could tap Jalen Mills to move back to outside corner, or they could put Trevor Williams in that role.

Expects to miss 1-2 weeks Maddox (ankle) expects to miss a week or two due to his injury, Marc Farzetta of 975 Mornings reports.

Impact The injury will likely keep Maddox out of the Eagles' Week 4 trip to San Francisco, and it sounds like the cornerback could miss the Week 5 game in Pittsburgh as well. Cre'von LeBlanc should fill in as a starting cornerback for as long as Maddox is out.

Could miss games Coach Doug Pederson said Maddox (ankle) may miss some time, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Impact Maddox left Sunday's tie against the Bengals with an ankle injury, and Pederson doesn't sound optimistic that the CB will be available in Week 4 against the 49ers. His status will be monitored throughout the week, but we should know more when the first practice report is released Wednesday. If he's forced to miss any time, Cre'von LeBlanc will likely bump into a starting role.
