The Detroit Lions are signing veteran linebacker Zach Cunningham before OTAs, adding depth to their crowded linebacker room amid injuries and rehabs, with Cunningham bringing extensive NFL experience from multiple teams.
Philadelphia Eagles' cornerback Darius Slay has been ruled out for Monday night's game against the Seattle Seahawks, while linebacker Zach Cunningham and guard Cam Jurgens will also miss the game due to injuries. Quarterback Jalen Hurts, who missed Saturday's practice with an illness, is expected to play. Safety Reed Blankenship, previously in the concussion protocol, is set to play as well. Slay underwent knee surgery and hopes to return this season.
The Philadelphia Eagles' injury report reveals that three starters, Darius Slay, Zach Cunningham, and Cam Jurgens, did not participate in practice, raising concerns about their availability for the upcoming game against the Seattle Seahawks. However, there is good news as safety Reed Blankenship has been upgraded to full participation and is expected to clear the concussion protocol in time for Monday's game.
The Philadelphia Eagles adjusted their practice schedule by putting on pads for Thursday's session to work on fundamentals. Three starters, Darius Slay, Zach Cunningham, and Cam Jurgens, did not participate in practice due to injuries, while Reed Blankenship was limited with a concussion. DeVonta Smith and Haason Reddick were not listed on the injury report despite not wearing pads initially. The Seattle Seahawks' injury report is yet to be released, but Geno Smith is expected to practice and play on Monday night.
Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Darius Slay returned to practice after resting his knee, while tight end Dallas Goedert and linebacker Zach Cunningham also practiced and expect to play on Sunday. The Eagles are in good injury shape overall, with most projected starters available for the upcoming game against the Dallas Cowboys. Other players, including Julio Jones, Fletcher Cox, and Jack Stoll, were also practicing despite minor injuries.
Several key players, including Fletcher Cox, Zach Cunningham, Dallas Goedert, Grant Calcaterra, and Justin Evans, missed practice for the Philadelphia Eagles as they prepare for their game against the San Francisco 49ers. Cox, who rarely misses games, injured his groin but is a strong candidate to play. Cunningham is likely to miss the game with a hamstring injury, while Goedert continues to heal from a fractured forearm. The Eagles had several limited players on the field, including Lane Johnson, who they hope will be able to play against the 49ers.
The Philadelphia Eagles have added three defensive starters, James Bradberry, Zach Cunningham, and Jordan Davis, to their injury report ahead of their game against the Washington Commanders. It is unclear if any of these players will miss the game, but Bradberry spoke to reporters after practice. Meanwhile, the Commanders' starting left guard Saahdiq Charles and CB Benjamin St.-Juste are dealing with injuries and missed practice.
Zach Cunningham impresses in his first start for the Philadelphia Eagles, leading the team in tackles and forming a promising partnership with Nakobe Dean. Despite limited practice time together, Cunningham and Dean showed great chemistry on the field. Cunningham, known for his run-stopping abilities, is also working on improving his pass coverage skills. If he can stay healthy, Cunningham is expected to start alongside Dean in Week 1.
The Philadelphia Eagles have signed linebackers Myles Jack and Zach Cunningham to one-year deals. Jack, a former Pittsburgh player, recorded 104 tackles and three passes defensed last season. Cunningham, who previously played for the Titans and Texans, has 6.5 sacks, five forced fumbles, and an interception in his career.
