Philadelphia Eagles running back Will Shipley suffered a partial tear of his plantar fascia and could miss multiple games, according to NFL insider Adam Schefter. Shipley sustained the injury early during the Eagles' Week 5 defeat against the Jacksonville Jaguars. He had started the game due to existing injuries across Philadelphia's backfield.

The Eagles were already playing without Saquon Barkley due to a hamstring injury, while Tank Bigsby remains on injured reserve.
