The Philadelphia Eagles listed six players on their initial injury report ahead of their Week 11 Thursday night matchup against the Washington Commanders. The Commanders listed 12 players on their initial injury report.
Here are the Eagles’ and Commanders’ inactives, with analysis…
• CB Marshon Lattimore: As the trade deadline approached a week ago, the most obvious weakness on the Commanders’ roster was at cornerback, and they did something about it by trading draft picks to the Saints for four-time Pro Bowl CB Marshon Lattimore. However, Lattimore has a hamstring injury, and will not yet make his Commanders debut. The likely starters at corner will be Benjamin St-Juste and Mike Sainristil. The Eagles can exploit those matchups with A.J. Brown and DeVontas Smith, as noted in more detail in our Eagles-Commanders preview.
• K Austin Seibert: The Commanders’ kicker will be Zane Gonzalez, who was called up from their practice squad.
• LB Nick Bellore: 14-year vet who has hung around int he NFL for so long because of his special teams contributions. He has actually made two Pro Bowls (2020, 2023) as a special teams guy.
The rest of the Commanders’ inactives are inconsequential.
