Boston Scott - Makes return from virus list The Eagles reinstated Scott (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday. Impact Philadelphia restored all of its players on the virus list to the active roster ahead of Sunday's wild-card game in Tampa Bay, including three key skill-position players in Scott and Jordan Howard along with tight end Dallas Goedert. Meanwhile, No. 1 back Miles Sanders (hand) was sidelined along with Scott and Howard for the Eagles' Week 18 loss to the Cowboys, which allowed Kenneth Gainwell (12 carries for 78 yards and a touchdown, four catches for nine yards) to fill a three-down role. Sanders' status heading into the Eagles' wild-card round game in Tampa Bay this weekend isn't yet clear, but if he's not ready to go, Scott and Howard would likely share most of the carries, while Gainwell would serve as more of a change-of-pace option.
