Rotowire
Smith registered four tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, during the Eagles' 27-13 win over the Steelers this past Sunday.

Smith is up to 5.5 sacks through 14 regular-season games, 3.0 of which have come over the Eagles' last five games. He'll look to add to that total against Jayden Daniels and the Commanders on Sunday.

Eagles' Sydney Brown: Done for rest of Sunday
Rotowire
Brown (concussion) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's contest against the Steelers, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports.
Brown suffered a blow to the head on the game's opening play and was evaluated for a concussion. It's unclear whether he was diagnosed with a concussion, but his day has come to an end regardless. Brown's impact is primarily on special teams, so his absence won't cause any major issues for Philadelphia's defense.

Rotowire
Brown exited Sunday's game versus the Steelers and is being evaluated for a concussion.
Brown is now questionable to return after leaving the game early in the first quarter. If he ends up being unable to return, Tristin McCollum should see an uptick in playing time.

Rotowire
Brown (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's battle against Pittsburgh.

Eagles' Jalen Carter: Practices fully Thursday
Rotowire
Carter (shoulder) was a full participant in practice Thursday.
The defensive tackle was a limited participant Wednesday after appearing on the injury report with the shoulder issue.

Eagles' Reed Blankenship: Practices in full Thursday
Rotowire
Blankenship (concussion) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
The safety was a limited participant Wednesday after missing the Eagles' Week 14 win over the Panthers. Blankenship suffered the concussion in Week 13 against the Ravens and did not practice at all last week, so his return should be a good sign. The third-year pro has 67 tackles (44 solo), five pass breakups, including three interceptions, and a fumble recovery in 2024.

Eagles' Jalen Carter: Dealing with shoulder issue
Rotowire
Carter was a limited participant in practice Wednesday due to a shoulder injury.
It's not clear when Carter suffered the injury, as he logged his usual large workload (90 percent of Philadelphia's defensive snaps) this past Sunday against Carolina. There's been no word that he's in any danger of missing Sunday's game against Pittsburgh, but it bears monitoring Carter's practice participation the rest of the week. If Carter were to miss any time, Thomas Booker could be asked to take on more defensive work.

Eagles' Reed Blankenship: Limited in practice to begin week
Rotowire
Blankenship (concussion) practiced Wednesday in limited fashion.
After suffering a concussion Week 13 against the Ravens, Blankenship missed this past Sunday's win over the Panthers. He didn't practice at all last week, so his limited participation to begin this week is a positive step toward him returning to action. Blankenship will need to clear the NFL's concussion protocol in order to suit up Sunday versus Pittsburgh.

Eagles' Tristin McCollum: Steps into expanded role
Rotowire
McCollum recorded four tackles (three solo) and a pass defensed during Sunday's 22-16 win versus the Panthers.
Though it didn't translate to a huge day in the box score, McCollum played a career-high 66 defensive snaps in Week 14 with both Reed Blankenship (concussion) and Sydney Brown (knee) sidelined. His snap share in Week 15 versus the Steelers will probably depend on Blankenship's and Brown's availability.

Eagles' Darius Slay: Nice showing in win
Rotowire
Slay recorded six tackles (five solo) and two passes defensed during Sunday's 22-16 win versus the Panthers.
Despite having missed two games due to injury this season, Slay now has 10 pass breakups on the year through Week 14. He'll look to add to that total in Week 15, though he might not have quite as many opportunities to do so versus the run-heavy Steelers.

Eagles' C.J. Gardner-Johnson: Possible concussion
Rotowire
Gardner-Johnson (head) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Panthers.
Gardner-Johnson was on the receiving end of a hit from teammate Tristin McCollum in the first quarter of Sunday's game. With Reed Blankenship (concussion) and Sydney Brown (knee) inactive, Avonte Maddox will step in at strong safety for as long as Gardner-Johnson is sidelined.

Rotowire
Brown (knee) did not practice Friday and has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.
Brown was unable to practice all week due to a knee injury, and his next opportunity to play will be Week 15 against the Steelers on Sunday, Dec. 15. Brown has mostly played on special teams this season, but with Reed Blankenship (concussion) also ruled out for Sunday's game, Tristin McCollum is in line to start at free safety alongside strong safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson.
