In Week 9, the Philadelphia Eagles are set to face off against the Jacksonville Jaguars at Lincoln Financial Field, with the game starting at 4:05 PM ET on Sunday. A significant focus for the Eagles is the availability of wide receiver DeVonta Smith. Smith appears on this week’s injury report as not having participated in practice due to personal reasons, though no specific game status has been assigned to him in the latest injury report. The Eagles’ injury list also includes Albert Okwuegbunam, who has been a full participant in practice despite an abdominal issue, and Dallas Goedert, who has been ruled out with a hamstring injury after accumulating 24 receptions and 301 receiving yards this season without any touchdowns.
DeVonta Smith’s current performance for the 2024 season has been notable, contributing 31 receptions for a total of 386 yards and three touchdowns, averaging 64.3 receiving yards per game. His presence on the field would be essential for the Eagles as they seek to bolster their offensive efforts against Jacksonville. The matchup is set to be broadcast on CBS, providing fans with the opportunity to tune in and see whether Smith will be able to contribute to the game or not. The Eagles will be keenly aware of the potential impact his availability could have on their passing game as they prepare for this crucial midseason showdown.
