Eagles Place Will Shipley on Injured Reserve; Saquon Barkley Out Against Panthers
The Philadelphia Eagles have placed running back Will Shipley on injured reserve following a foot injury sustained during their recent game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Shipley, who had started in that match, reportedly suffered a partial tear of his plantar fascia.
This injury comes as the Eagles face running back challenges, with Saquon Barkley also ruled out for their upcoming game against the Carolina Panthers due to a hamstring injury. Barkley will miss his second consecutive game after being injured in Week 4.
With both Shipley and Barkley unavailable, the Eagles will rely on Dameon Pierce and Carson Steele as their only healthy running backs on the active roster for the Week 6 matchup.
