Dorsey (concussion) was a full participant at practice Thursday.

Dorsey opened the week as a non-participant at practice Wednesday while recovering from an apparent concussion, but he was able to practice in full one day later. The cornerback will have one more practice to officially clear concussion protocol prior to Sunday's contest in Cincinnati.

Love (hamstring) did not participate in Thursday's practice, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

Love has opened the week with back-to-back DNPs due to a hamstring injury that he played through during the Seahawks' Week 4 win over the Cardinals. Friday's practice report will provide clarity on Love's chances of playing in Sunday's home tilt against the Buccaneers. Nick Emmanwori and Ty Okada would be the top candidates to start at safety alongside Coby Bryant if Love is unable to play versus Tampa Bay.

Jackson (groin) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

Jackson was unable to play in the Eagles' Week 4 win over the Buccaneers due to a groin injury that he sustained against the Rams in Week 3. He opened the week as a limited practice participant Wednesday, but his ability to practice without restrictions Thursday indicates that he should make his return against the Broncos on Sunday. Jackson's return would lead to a drop in defensive snaps for 2023 fourth-rounder Kelee Ringo.

Crosby (knee) was a limited participant at practice Thursday, Anthony Galaviz of The Fresno Bee reports.

Crosby was added to the injury report Thursday with an apparent knee injury, logging a limited practice after opening the week as a full participant Wednesday. The defensive end will look to return to all activity Friday to erase any concerns about his chances to play Sunday on the road versus the Colts.

Carter (shoulder) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

Carter aggravated a shoulder injury during the Eagles' Week 4 win over the Buccaneers. He was limited in Wednesday's practice, but his ability to participate in full Thursday indicates that he should play against the Broncos on Sunday. The 2023 first-rounder has tallied six tackles (two solo) through the first four games of the regular season.

Mayer (concussion) was a limited participant at practice Thursday, Anthony Galaviz of The Fresno Bee reports.

Mayer has been slowly working his way back from a concussion he suffered Week 3 versus the Commanders. He's now logged back-to-back limited efforts to begin the week, potentially opening the door for him to clear concussion protocol and play Sunday in Indianapolis.

Calcaterra (illness) did not participate in Thursday's practice.

The illness appears to be new, as Calcaterra was not listed on Wednesday's injury report. How he recovers over the coming days will determine whether he will play in Sunday's home game against the Broncos. Kylen Granson and Cameron Latu would be in line to serve as the Eagles' top two tight ends if Calcaterra and Dallas Goedert (knee) were unable to play.

Fisk (toe) was a limited participant at practice Thursday.

Fisk was added to the injury report Thursday with an apparent toe injury after he was a full participant Wednesday. The tight end will look to return to log a full practice Friday before the team's matchup with the Commanders at home Sunday.

Armstrong (illness) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

Armstrong missed Wednesday's practice due to an illness, but he appears to no longer be under the weather after logging a full session Thursday and is on track to play against the Chargers on Sunday. The 2018 fourth-rounder has 19 tackles (six solo) through the first four games of the regular season.

Bowers (knee) didn't take part in Thursday's practice, Anthony Galaviz of The Fresno Bee reports.

Bowers has had his practice reps impacted from time to time since injuring his left knee Week 1 at New England. He's still been regularly involved in the Raiders offense through the first four games of the season, hauling in 19 of 27 passes for 225 yards, but he's still in search of his initial end-zone visit. After following up Wednesday's limited session with no activity one day later, Bowers may not escape Week 5 prep without a designation ahead of Sunday's contest at Indianapolis.
