In addition to there being changes along the Philadelphia Eagles' offensive line unit, they will also be without two of their top playmakers against theJacksonville Jaguars.
On Friday's final injury report, the Eagles ruled out running back Saquon Barkley (hamstring) and wide receiver DeVonta Smith (hamstring).
New addition Jaylon Jones the only player ruled out for #Jaguars. Eric Murray (concussion protocol) is doubtful, but practiced in limited fashion Friday

Barkley exited last Sunday's game against the Rams with the injury and did not practice at all during the week. Smith was a non-participant
all three days as well.
Barkley is, of course, one of the best backs in football. In 2024, he rushed for 2,005 yards in the regular season and last year eclipsed the 1,100-yard mark.
He is consistently one of the more difficult running backs to bring down. Through three-plus games this season, Barkley is averaging 5.1 yards per rush.
In addition to Barkley being out, so is Tank Bigsby. Will Shipley, a 2024 fourth-round pick, has 15 rush attempts this season, totaling 51 yards.
Smith, meanwhile, has produced four consecutive 1,000-yard seasons. Dontayvion Wicks (12) and Makai Lemon (10) are second and third on the team in receptions this season.
