Alshon Jeffery, Dallas Goedert Expected To Play Thursday
5 years agoPhiladelphia Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said that wide receiver Alshon Jeffery (calf) and tight end Dallas Goedert (calf) are both expected to play on Thursday against the Packers. DeSean Jackson (groin) is expected to miss his second straight game, and rookie J.J. Arcega-Whiteside (heel) is also banged up. Jeffery should be back in the lineup after missing a game, but he'll be more of a WR3 coming off injury against a strong Packers secondary. Expect Nelson Agholor and Mack Hollins to join Jeffery in three-receiver sets. Goedert dropped a potential long touchdown in Week 3 and didn't play all that much, making him one to avoid as a TE2 behind Zach Ertz.
