The Philadelphia Eagles officially announced the inactives list for their 2025 NFL Week 6 game against the New York Giants.
The following Eagles players WILL NOT PLAY: Jalen Carter, Landon Dickerson, Grant
Calcaterra, Sam Howell, Mac McWilliams, and Xavier Gipson.
Carter was unexpectedly added to the final injury report on Wednesday; he was listed as questionable to play with a heel injury. Carter went through a pregame workout on Thursday night with multiple notable onlookers, such as Howie Roseman. Preventing Carter from playing on the MetLife Stadium turf might be for the best in the big picture … but the Eagles will miss their top defensive tackle in this game. With Carter out, the Eagles have the following five defensive tackles available: Jordan Davis, Moro Ojomo, Byron Young, Ty Robinson, and Gabe Hall (who was temporarily elevated from the practice squad).
Dickerson and Calcaterra were ruled out on the final injury report. Brett Toth is slated to start at left guard while Kylen Granson could serve as the second tight end behind Dallas Goedert.
Howell is the emergency third quarterback. He can only enter the game if both Jalen Hurts and Tanner McKee become unavailable.
McWilliams is a healthy scratch for the second straight game.
Gipson has been a healthy scratch since joining the Eagles.
Nakobe Dean is active after being activated to the roster on Wednesday afternoon, as expected.
Rookie center/guard Drew Kendall is active for the first time this season with Dickerson not playing. More interior offensive line depth.
