The Philadelphia Eagles are suffering very key injuries on both sides of the ball, but five offensive players were dinged up in tonight's first half. Carson Wentz suffered a hit to his ribs and missed three or four plays, while veteran backup Josh McCown played a series for him. Pass catchers Alshon Jeffery (calf), Desean Jackson (groin), and Dallas Goedert (calf) are questionable. Center Jason Kelce walked to Atlanta's sideline and was checked for a concussion, but cleared the protocol. Wide receiver Nelson Agholor missed the last play on offense and this is something to monitor as they would be down three wide receivers. He is being checked out for a head injury. With all these injuries, look for the Eagles to use extra personnel because of the lack of tight ends and receivers.
