Hunt required assistance off the field at the end of the second quarter of Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London due to an apparent lower-body injury, Jimmy Kempski of PhillyVoice.com reports.

After the Eagles defense stuffed Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten at the goal line on a fourth-and-goal to close out the first half, Hunt emerged from the play in considerable pain. The Eagles initially brought a cart out for the linebacker, but he was able to instead walk off the field while being supported by team trainers. The team should provide an update on his status following halftime, but he would appear to be questionable to return.

Shipley is questionable to return to Sunday's game versus the Jaguars in London due to a foot injury.

Shipley was dinged up after a carry in the second quarter and visited the medical tent on the Eagles sideline before going to the locker room. He was getting most of the backfield reps in place of an absent Saquon Barkley (hamstring) before his departure, and if Shipley is unable to re-enter Sunday's contest, the Eagles backfield likely will be paced by Dameon Pierce. Carson Steele is also on hand for reps.

Addison (hamstring), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Saints, is expected to be inactive for the contest, Jeff Darlington of ESPN reports.

Addison and fellow starting wideout Justin Jefferson (ankle) are both carrying questionable tags into Sunday, though Jefferson is expected to play through his injury after completing a pregame workout. On the other hand, Addison apparently isn't feeling as healthy as the 1 p.m. ET kickoff approaches, and he looks poised to miss his first game of the season after a sore hamstring kept him from practicing Wednesday and limited his participation Thursday and Friday. Minnesota elevated wideouts Odell Beckham and Jeshaun Jones from the practice squad Saturday to provide the team with additional options at the position in Addison's expected absence.

Higgins (groin/neck) is expected to play Sunday in Miami, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Higgins emerged from Week 4 with adductor and neck injuries and wasn't able to practice at all Wednesday or Thursday, but he ended the week with a full session and entered the weekend listed as questionable to suit up. Fellow WR Ja'Marr Chase similarly was full Friday and questionable for Week 5 action, but he also is in line to be available to the Bengals offense Sunday. The statuses of both players will be confirmed about 90 minutes before a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Chase (concussion) is slated to play Sunday at Miami, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

The same goes for fellow WR Tee Higgins (groin/neck) after both endured practice restrictions during Week 5 prep but capped it with full sessions Friday. Chase himself made quick work of the protocol for head injuries after he was ripped to the ground via his facemask last Sunday against the Jaguars. On the season, he boasts a 21-212-3 line on 28 targets in parts of four contests.

Matiscik is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Eagles in London due to a shoulder injury.

The long snapper may have gotten hurt when the Jaguars punted following their first possession of the game in the first quarter. If Matiscik is unable to continue, the Jaguars would likely turn to defensive tackle DaVon Hamilton to serve as their fill-in long snapper.

Thomas was ejected from Sunday's game in London after receiving an unnecessary roughness penalty for fighting with the Eagles' Jeremiah Trotter following the opening kickoff, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

Trotter was also ejected for fighting. An undrafted rookie defensive end out of South Carolina, Thomas has totaled one tackle and a half-sack through the Jaguars' first five contests.

Trotter was ejected from Sunday's game in London after receiving an unnecessary roughness penalty for fighting with the Jaguars' Bryan Thomas following the opening kickoff, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

Thomas was also ejected for fighting. Trotter has split his time between defense and special teams in 2026, logging 19 tackles and one pass breakup through five games.

The Eagles are expected to keep Johnson (personal) on the 53-man roster for the remainder of the season, even though he announced his retirement Tuesday, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.

Placing Johnson on the reserve/retired list would carry burdensome salary-cap implications for the Eagles, who appear content to essentially move forward with a 52-man roster before processing his move to the list after June 1 to spread out his cap hit over two years and maintain more financial flexibility. The Eagles are expected to list Johnson as inactive for most of their remaining games, but because of the volume of injured players on the roster in Week 5, he'll technically be active for Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London despite not being with the team, per Berman.

Jackson (ankle), who has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Falcons, has a "real chance" to return to action next week against Cleveland, pending how he responds to rehab, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Jackson didn't practice in an fashion this week after he was sidelined for the entire second half of last Sunday's win over the Titans, but the Ravens remain optimistic that his ankle injury is a short-term concern. Though Tyler Huntley will get the starting nod in place of Jackson against Atlanta, Rapoport notes that the Ravens' franchise quarterback has been "in the building early working crazy to get himself back on the field" this week. Assuming the rehab work Jackson has put in translates into him returning to practice at some point next week, he should be able to meet his goal of playing after a one-game absence.
