“There’s not quite a lot of optimism” concerning the Philadelphia Eagles having DeVonta Smith obtainable for his or her Week 13 recreation towards the Baltimore Ravens, in keeping with NFL insider Ian Rapoport.
Rapoport notes that Smith may work out previous to the sport on Sunday to see if he can go. Mike Garafolo provides that there’s “no definitive ruling as of now however [Smith] has work to do to play on this one.”
Smith, who’s been coping with a hamstring difficulty, was formally dominated questionable to play on the Eagles’ remaining damage report. He missed Wednesday’s apply earlier than being restricted on Thursday and Friday.
Doubtlessly being with out Smith isn’t supreme; the Eagles will probably want all arms on deck to beat the Ravens. With Johnny Wilson additionally dominated out, Philadelphia is perhaps down to simply the next broad receivers: A.J. Brown, Jahan Dotson, Britain Covey, Ainias Smith, and Parris Campbell. The Eagles may look to essentially lean into working the ball (as they normally do) and using extra two tight finish units on this recreation.
If he doesn’t play this weekend, maybe we’ll see Smith return in Week 14 or Week 15. His progress in apply factors to him being again on the sector prior to later, although hamstring accidents can clearly be difficult.
