  • Eagles' Oren Burks: Cleared to play Sunday
    By RotoWire

    Burks (groin) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Giants and is expected to play. Burks has yet to play a single snap on defense this season but is a special-teams stalwart for the Eagles, logging 96 snaps across five appearances. Burks has yet to record any stats from scrimmage in 2024.

  • Burks (knee) participated at practice Saturday, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports. Burks was out for most of training camp as he dealt with a knee injury, but it now looks like he's close to being back in playing shape as the regular season approaches. Barring injuries, he figures to play only a minor role in Philadelphia's defense in 2024.

  • Eagles' Oren Burks: Misses another practice
    By RotoWire

    Burks (knee) missed his third straight practice Monday, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports. Burks inked a one-year deal worth up to $2.5 million with the Eagles earlier in the offseason, and he now appears to be dealing with a knee injury. The Vanderbilt product appeared in 15 games (five starts) with the 49ers in 2023, recording 46 total tackles, including 1.0 sack, while also intercepting one pass. Once Burks returns to full health, he's expected to compete for a rotational role in the Eagles' linebacker corps.

  • Burks finished with 46 tackles (29 solo), including one sack, and one interception in 15 games played with San Francisco in 2023. Burks served as the 49ers' Sam linebacker in base formations for most of the regular season, setting a new career high in tackles while playing the most defensive snaps (308) of his career. The six-year pro was also asked to replace starter Dre Greenlaw (Achilles) after the latter suffered a torn Achilles early in Super Bowl LVIII. Burks' strong contributions as a role player could earn the linebacker a shot at starting alongside Fred Warner to begin the 2024 campaign while Greenlaw continues his lengthy recovery. That scenario would require the 49ers to re-sign Burks, whose two-year contract expires this offseason.

  • Burks (shoulder) is active for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Lions, Lindsey Pallares of the 49ers' official site reports. Burks sustained a shoulder injury in Thursday's practice and was limited in Friday's session. Adam Schefter of ESPN reported earlier Sunday that Burks was unlikely to play in the NFC Championship Game, but it appears the linebacker will battle through his shoulder issue. Burks had two solo tackles in the Niners' divisional-round win over the Packers.
