The Eagles will have 7 players inactive for tonight’s home opener against Minnesota.
S Reed Blankenship: Dealing with a rib injury, the starting safety will be inactive.
CB James Bradberry: The Eagles will be without one of their starting cornerbacks as Bradberry did not clear concussion protocol in time to play.
RB Kenneth Gainwell: Also dealing with a rib injury, Gainwell will not dress after leading the team in carries during Week 1.
QB Tanner McKee (3rd QB): The rookie will serve as the team’s emergency quarterback and can only play if Jalen Hurts and Marcus Mariota get injured.
