The Philadelphia Eagles issued their first official injury report in advance of their Week 4 road game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The Eagles listed three players under DID NOT PARTICIPATE: Zack Baun, Jihaad Campbell, and Adoree’ Jackson.
Definitely not comforting to see both of the Eagles’ stud off-ball linebackers not practicing. Baun made it sound like he could play this week despite being spotted with a sizable brace on his leg. Campbell seemed unsure. Jeremiah Trotter Jr. and Smael Mondon (in that order) are the top two backups behind the starters.
Jackson was spotted wearing a helmet and warming up with the team so it’s interesting to see him listed under DNP. Maybe he has a shot to play this week. If not, Kelee Ringo could start since Jakorian Bennett was placed on injured reserve.
The Eagles listed two players under LIMITED PARTICIPATION: Lane Johnson and Tanner McKee.
Johnson indicated he plans on playing despite suffering a stinger in Week 3. We’ll monitor how he progresses over the next two days.
McKee is still limited. We’ll see if he’s ready to be QB2 or if it’ll be Sam Howell again with McKee as the emergency third quarterback.
The Eagles listed one player under FULL PARTICIPATION: Will Shipley.
Shipley seems to be on track to play this week after missing the Eagles’ last two games. He’ll be the primary backup behind Saquon Barkley.
The Eagles placed Nolan Smith, Jakorian Bennett, and Darius Cooper on injured reserve earlier on Wednesday.

TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS INJURY REPORT (WEDNESDAY)
Bucs starting wide receiver Mike Evans is not expected to play this week. Between him being out and Jalen McMillan on IR, Tampa will be without two of their top four wide receivers. Chris Godwin Jr. is on track to return but might not be 100% in his first game back from injury.
Interesting to see that Bucs quarterback Baker Mayfield is limited with an injury related to his throwing arm. Bucs starting left tackle is reportedly set to play despite being limited.
