The Philadelphia Eagles are dealing with major offensive injury issues ahead of their Week 7 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. Philadelphia's top three pass catchers—DeVonta Smith, Dontayvion Wicks, and Dallas Goedert—all missed practice on Thursday due to various injuries. Smith is dealing with a hamstring issue, Wicks is nursing an ankle injury, and Goedert is sidelined by a knee problem.

Writer Anthony Miller highlights that backup quarterback Tanner McKee relies heavily on these targets, with Smith leading the team in receiving yards and touchdowns.
