The Eagles drafted two cornerbacks ( Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean) and brought back safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson during free agency, but the secondary has not played much better compared to last season when they ranked 31st in the league (252.7 passing yards per game) against the pass.

C.J. Gardner-Johnson has already missed two rematch games against the New Orleans Saints with injuries on two different teams, so he's probably looking forward to his third chance for some payback. But he was a surprise midweek addition to the Philadelphia Eagles injury

The Philadelphia Eagles won't rule out A.J. Brown or C.J. Gardner-Johnson this week, but they also have not practiced yet on Friday when head coach Nick Sirianni provided updates on the two players. Brown has missed Wednesday and Thursday practice with a hamstring injury while Gardner-Johnson surprisingly popped on the injury report on Thursday with a foot injury.
