PHILADELPHIA -- Eagles right tackle Lane Johnson suffered a stinger during Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams, a league source said. The injury is not expected to keep him out of next week's game at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, according to the source. The injury was believed to have happened during the first tush push play the team ran in the first quarter, when quarterback Jalen Hurts picked up a first down. The Eagles went on to score on that drive on another quarterback sneak.

CAM JURGENS' WHITE Dodge Ram pickup truck crunches the gravel as he pulls up to his boyhood home on the outskirts of Pickrell, Nebraska, population 186. Three generations of Jurgens live on this half-mile of farmland with corn, cows and sky stretching as far as the eye can see. With tousled red hair, the 6-foot-3, 303-pound Philadelphia Eagles center walks through the door of the modest 1,400-square foot home.

"As players, we have to move on," said left tackle Jordan Mailata. "That is the only way we can improve or strive to perform this season. We can't carry the baggage from last season -- good or bad -- you can't bring it in. It's just like a new relationship. You've got to buy into that because you see everyone else buying into it. And you can see who doesn't buy in because you get left behind."

Let's grade trades from the 2025 NFL season. When a deal happens, we often hear the old adage that it will take years to know how well each team did in the deal. To that I say: nonsense. General managers don't get the benefit of hindsight while they are making their decisions, so why should we when evaluating those decisions?

This team was on the verge of imploding as recently as 2023, when they went 1-5 down the stretch and bombed out of the Wild Card round in Tampa. Matt Patricia was somehow involved. Eagles fans demanded heads on spikes (whiz wit!), and were crushed when ownership refused to give them satisfaction. I too was disappointed, because I hate the lot of you.

The Philadelphia Eagles made a strong push to trade for Micah Parsons this summer, league sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter. Philadelphia called Dallas to try to acquire Parsons, but the Cowboys had no interest in trading the two-time All-Pro pass rusher within their own division -- especially to the rival Eagles, sources told Schefter. After months of failed negotiations on a long-term contract, the Cowboys ultimately traded Parsons last week to the Green Bay Packers,

Patriots Baker had the option to return to New England's practice squad, but elected a fresh start in Philadelphia. Javon Baker is reportedly heading to a new team for the 2025 season. The 2024 fourth-round pick had a rollercoaster of a career in New England, and that remained true up until the very end of his tenure. Heading into the week, it appeared Baker was on the bubble of making the Patriots' 53-man roster.
