• Eagles' Avonte Maddox: May move positions

  08/20/2024 • By RotoWire

  Maddox has been getting reps at safety during practice this week, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports. Maddox is likely to lose his role as the team's slot corner to the Eagles' first-round selection in the 2024 Draft, Quinyon Mitchell. The rookie has been getting first-team reps at slot corner, leaving the veteran Maddox without a clear role in the secondary as things currently stand.

• Eagles' Avonte Maddox: Now dealing with elbow issue

  01/04/2024 • By RotoWire

  Maddox was estimated as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice walk-through due to an elbow injury. Maddox returned from a 13-game stint on injured reserve Sunday to log 38 percent of Philadelphia's defensive snaps in a loss to Arizona. His time on IR was due to a torn pectoral muscle, but he's now apparently dealing with an elbow issue. Maddox's practice participation during the remainder of the week should provide insight into his chances of playing Sunday's regular-season finale versus the Giants.

• Eagles' Avonte Maddox: Activated off IR ahead of Week 17

  12/30/2023 • By RotoWire

  The Eagles activated Maddox (pectoral) off injured reserve Saturday. Maddox missed 13 games after tearing his pectoral muscle in Week 2 against Minnesota. The veteran cornerback logged a trio of limited practices this week and didn't have an injury designation heading into the weekend, so his activation off IR was fully expected. Maddox's return comes at an opportune time for the Eagles, as Darius Slay will miss his third straight game due to a knee injury.

• Eagles' Avonte Maddox: Clear for Sunday

  12/29/2023 • By RotoWire

  Maddox (pectoral) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Cardinals. Maddox has missed the Eagles' last 13 games with this pectoral issue, and despite not having an injury designation in Week 17, he must be activated to the team's active roster in order to suit up Sunday. The addition of Maddox would be huge for a Philadelphia secondary that's already without Darius Slay (knee) in Week 17.

• Eagles' Avonte Maddox: May be done for season

  09/18/2023 • By RotoWire

  Maddox will have surgery this week to repair a torn pectoral muscle suffered in Thursday's win over the Vikings and will be out indefinitely, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Maddox suffered the injury in the first half of the game and was unable to return. Although a torn pectoral was deemed likely, further opinions along with an MRI confirmed the diagnosis and best course of recovery. The news is certainly a blow to the Eagles secondary, which currently is also without James Bradberry (concussion) and which sees Reed Blankenship (ribs) at less than full health as well. Maddox will now likely head to IR, while more news on his recovery time should come sometime after the surgery is performed.
