Quinyon Mitchell (hamstring) return questionable.

CB Quinyon Mitchell (hamstring) has been downgraded to out.

Saquon Barkley exits after a lopsided loss against the Giants, dropping the Eagles to 4-2.

Lane Johnson said part of the key is being “less predictable” on offense moving forward.

Saquon Barkley says the Eagles have to get back into the mindset of “not giving a f—“ about what the defense is trying to do.

Just to clear this up. That wasn’t a meeting or a sit-down. I said “I don’t recall” because it got painted like there was tension and Sa had to step in. That’s not true. I was walking to my car, saw them, and stopped to talk. Nothing more.

Za’Darius Smith informed the Eagles of his retirement this morning. An abrupt departure. A depleted edge group takes another hit.

A practice squad move for the Eagles: They signed CB Tariq Castro-Fields and released CB Eli Ricks.

Za'Darius Smith (1.5 sacks) had a chance to hit some significant incentives. Per copy of the contract obtained by ESPN, he'd receive: $250k if he finished with 5-6.5 sacks $500k for 7-7.5 $750k for 8-8.5 $ 1 million for 9-9.5 Max he could get was $2.5 if he reached 15-plus.

FACTS only today from the Vikings' "bonus" practice: J.J. McCarthy participated. So did Carson Wentz. Kevin O'Connell said he's happy "just to see J.J. back out there getting reps and working through the process of building that foundation back up." espn.com/nfl/story/_/id…

The Eagles have placed Za'Darius Smith on the Reserve/Retired List.

Eagles DC Vic Fangio says it “remains to be seen” whether Quinyon Mitchell will be available Sunday against the Vikings.

Quinyon Mitchell (hamstring) is warming up for practice. Would be huge if he can play against Justin Jefferson and the Vikings.

Jalen Carter and Landon Dickerson present as well.

Jalen Carter said he’ll be good to play this week. Said shoulder is feeling better as well.

One change for the Eagles coming off their mini-bye was to put the pads back on for Wednesday’s practice, says Nakobe Dean.

J.J. McCarthy's ankle is "getting there" but not yet 100%. "We've got to be smart here and understand there's a lot of things that go into play, and at the end of the day, I'm just going to do what I'm told and try to get better as fast as possible." espn.com/nfl/story/_/id…

Eagles injury report for Thursday

Definitely not the look of a guy who shattered a crock pot and ate the family’s chili last night.

Jalen Carter and Landon Dickerson are questionable for Vikings. Carter said earlier this week he’s playing, though he’s been limited the past two days. Quinyon Mitchell appears good to go.
