Latest Eagles-Falcons injury report: AJ Brown is one of two players whose participation is questionable

Latest Eagles-Falcons injury report: AJ Brown is one of two players whose participation is questionable

The Philadelphia Eagles released their third and final official injury report on Saturday ahead of their Week 2 game against the Atlanta Falcons on Monday Night Football.

The Eagles considered the participation of two players questionable: AJ Brown and Jonny Wilson.

Brown suffered a hamstring injury in practice this week. He was listed as limited on Friday before not practicing at all on Saturday. That sequence doesn't sound particularly encouraging! Then again, Brown has only missed one game in his time with the Eagles, so it's hard to write him off completely at this point.

Wilson is a brand new addition to the injured list. Like Brown, he missed practice on Saturday with a hamstring injury. Pretty unfortunate timing.

If Brown and Wilson can't play, the Eagles have only three healthy wide receivers: DeVonta Smith, Jahan Dotson and Britain Covey. They would also likely temporarily promote at least one wide receiver from the practice squad, and that would likely be Parris Campbell.

It wouldn't be ideal to have Jalen Hurts missing his best receiver on Monday night, but the Eagles should still have enough offensive power to beat this Atlanta Falcons team that only managed 10 points at home in Week 1.

In other news, Milton Williams was declared fully fit on Saturday after being limited on Thursday and Friday. He is good to go.

Backup tackle Fred Johnson is also available for action after being placed on the injured list on Friday with a thumb injury.

Tyler Steen was placed on the injured list due to an ankle issue (one wonders if it's the same issue that sidelined him previously), but he was listed as a full participant.

Isaiah Rodgers and Devin White are both healthy enough to play after practicing fully all week.
