The Eagles open this week for first place in the NFC East and their stay there will be helped through players returning from injured reserves.
On Monday morning he announced that the team had opened 21-day windows for 4 players on the list for at least 3 games. Offensive lineman Jason Peters, open receiver Jalen Reagor, protector Rudy Ford and supporter T. J. Edwards make up the quartet.
Peters missed three games due to a toe injury and head coach Doug Pederson said last Friday that the team had not made a decision about where he would play once he returned. Peter re-signed with the team to play as a right guard after Brandon Brooks broke his Achilles, however, he moved to his old left-wing shot when Andre Dillard fell during the summer year. Jordan Mailata played instead of Peter.
Reagor underwent thumb surgery after getting injured at the time of the week. The first-round recruit caught five receptions for 96 yards in his first two NFL games.
Edwards and Ford have missed the last 3 games, all 4 players will be eligible to play the Cowboys in Week 8 or will simply wait to return after expiration when the Eagles face the Giants in Week 10.
