J.J. Arcega-Whiteside - Questionable to return Arcega-Whiteside (ankle) is questionable to return Sunday against Detroit.
Impact The potential loss of Arcega-Whiteside will test the team's depth at the position, as Jalen Reagor (ankle) has been downgraded to out. Quez Watkins and Greg Ward are expected to see an uptick in snaps as a result.

Jalen Reagor - Injures ankle Sunday Reagor was forced out of Sunday's game against the Lions with an ankle injury.
Impact Prior to his exit from the contest, Reagor ran twice for 21 yards and caught one pass for zero yards. In his absence, DeVonta Smith and Quez Watkins will head the Eagles' Week 8 wideout corps.

Jack Driscoll - Might not return Sunday Driscoll (hand) is questionable to return Sunday against the Lions.
Impact Driscoll suffered the injury early in the first quarter and it remains to be seen if he'll be able to return -- but his absence would be a blow for the offensive line. Expect Nate Herbig to see an uptick in his playing time while Driscoll is sidelined.

Kenneth Gainwell - May not receive starting assingment Gainwell was seen taking snaps after Boston Scott, who is working with the starters in pregame warmups ahead of Sunday's game against the Lions, Josh Tolentino of The Philadelphia...
Impact With Miles Sanders (ankle) sidelined for at least three games after landing on injured reserve, more opportunities should open up for both Scott and Gainwell. Though Gainwell has routinely outpaced Scott in snaps and touches in every game this season, the distribution of the work between the two could be more even Sunday. While Scott looks to be trending toward getting the start, that shouldn't be taken as a sign that he'll be the clear No. 1 option out of the backfield. When Sanders was sidelined for the final three quarters of last week's loss to the Raiders, Gainwell played 58 percent of the snaps and logged five carries and six targets, while Scott played 44 percent of the snaps and handled seven carries and two targets. If the Eagles are able to sit on an early lead for most of the game against the winless Lions, a larger dose of Scott on the ground could be on tap, but a neutral or pass-heavy script would seemingly favor Gainwell.

Boston Scott - Could make start? Scott is working with the first-team offense in pregame warmups ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Lions, Josh Tolentino of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Impact Kenneth Gainwell has worked as the No. 2 back behind Miles Sanders all season, but Scott got two more carries (seven to five) in the Week 7 loss to Las Vegas after Sanders sprained his ankle. Gainwell did have the advantage in snap share (51 percent to 33) and targets (8-2), so it's possible he's the more productive back Sunday afternoon even if he comes off the bench rather than making his first career start. There's also a third candidate for carries, with Jordan Howard promoted Saturday from the practice squad.

Davion Taylor - Will likely start Sunday Taylor will likely draw the start at middle linebacker Sunday with Eric Wilson (coach's decision) out, Martin Frank of the Delaware News Journal reports.
Impact After missing two games with the calf injury, Taylor has seen increased playing time in each of the last two weeks. It appears that the Eagles want to give the 2020 third-round pick an opportunity to win a starting job.

Eric Wilson - Left off game-day roster Wilson (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Lions, Martin Frank of the Delaware News Journal reports.
Impact Wilson wasn't listed on the injury report all week, so his absence from the game-day roster implies the linebacker has been benched for Week 8. Davion Taylor will likely draw the start and play the majority of snaps in Wilson's absence.
