Campbell recorded three assisted tackles, a pass defensed and a forced fumble during Thursday's 24-20 win versus the Cowboys.

Campbell had an otherwise quiet day on the stat sheet, but the fumble that he forced late in the third quarter at Philadelphia's 10-yard line was crucial to protect the team's 24-20 lead. He'll still probably be hoping to rack up a higher tackle total in Week 2 at Kansas City.

Mitchell recorded four tackles (three solo), a pass defensed and a fumble recovery during Thursday's 24-20 win versus the Cowboys.

Not only was Mitchell strong in coverage Thursday against a dangerous wide receiver duo, but he also came up with a loose football deep in Philadelphia territory late in the third quarter to help preserve a 24-20 lead. He should play a near-every down role again in Week 2 when the Eagles travel to Kansas City.

Perryman is questionable to return to Friday's game against the Chiefs due to an ankle injury.

Perryman suffered the injury in the first half of Friday's game, and he'll undergo further tests to determine the severity of his injury and whether he can return. Del'Shawn Phillips and Troy Dye are candidates to see a significant increase in snaps at inside linebacker alongside Daiyan Henley if Perryman is not cleared to return.

Bland recorded three tackles in Thursday's 24-20 loss to the Eagles.

Bland was one of five Cowboys defenders to play 100 percent of the defensive snaps. Bland nearly evenly split his work between the slot and a traditional wide corner alignment, while Trevon Diggs was in a part-time role as he ramps up from a knee injury. Bland should retain a full snap count even once Diggs is fully back in the mix, potentially playing even more often in the slot.

Clark logged five tackles (two solo) during the Cowboys' 24-20 loss to the Eagles on Thursday.

Clark made his first appearance in a Cowboys' jersey Thursday after being traded by the Packers in a package that returned Micah Parsons (back). Clark got the start at defensive tackle and played a key role in limiting Saquon Barkley to just 60 rushing yards on 18 carries. Clark will have additional time to acclimate to the Cowboys' defensive playbook ahead of their Week 2 matchup against the Giants on Sunday, Sept. 14.

Sanborn recorded six tackles (two solo) during Thursday's 24-20 loss at Philadelphia.

Sanborn played a significant role in the Cowboys' season opener, playing 48 of their 63 defensive snaps, and he came away with a decent day on the stat sheet to show for it. It's not likely Dallas will see such a heavy dose of the run again in Week 2 when they host the Giants, so Sanborn could spend more time in coverage in that contest.

Worthy (shoulder) won't return to Friday's game versus the Chargers in Sao Paolo, Brazil.

Worthy took a hit directly to his right shoulder from TE Travis Kelce on the first drive of the contest while running an underneath route. He was in visible pain as he went to the sideline and then was escorted off the field and immediate to the X-ray room before being ruled out. With Rashee Rice suspended for the first six games of the season and Jalen Royals (knee) inactive, the Chiefs are left with Hollywood Brown, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Tyquan Thornton, Jason Brownlee and Nikko Remigio for the rest of Week 1.

DeJean logged five tackles (three solo) and one pass defense during Thursday's 24-20 win over Dallas.

DeJean played all 61 of the Eagles' defensive snaps Thursday, and he was lined up in the slot corner for 48 of those snaps. The 2024 second-rounder established himself as a key member of the Eagles' defense during his rookie season, and his versatility to line up across multiple positions will keep him on the field. DeJean and the Eagles face the Chiefs in Week 2 in a Super Bowl LIX rematch -- in that championship game, the 22-year-old recorded a pick-six to help Philadelphia hoist the Lombardi Trophy.

Blankenship tallied three solo tackles in Thursday's 24-20 win over the Cowboys.

Blankenship joined Zack Baun, Cooper DeJean and Quinyon Mitchell as the four Eagles players to play every single defensive snap in Thursday's regular-season opener. Blankenship was flagged for an unnecessary roughness penalty on a late hit on tight end Jake Ferguson late in the third quarter that put the Cowboys in the red zone, but the former was bailed out after Mitchell jumped on a Miles Sanders fumble on the next play. Blankenship should stay busy in the Eagles' Super Bowl LIX rematch against the Chiefs on Sunday, Sept. 14.

Wilson recorded one tackle in Thursday's 24-20 loss to the Eagles.

It was an uninspiring line for Wilson, but he was on the field for 100 percent of Dallas' defensive snaps, so his role doesn't appear to be in danger. After topping 80 stops in each of the last two seasons, he should be in line to be more involved in future contests.
