Christian McCaffrey: Achilles/calf
This has been a long time coming and with Jordan Mason potentially still dealing with the shoulder injury from a month ago, CMC will (likely) get close to a full workload. There’s no need to wait and see one of the most electric athletes we’ve seen on an NFL field the past decade. The last test is getting through a full game. Even though that’s not guaranteed, its now or never.
Projected Return: Week 10
AJ Brown: MCL Sprain
After knee injuries WRs tend to bounce back showing good peripherals and Week Winner Rates. There’s some re-injury risk baked in but overall Brown should be back in every lineup.
Projected Return: Week 10
A.J. Brown will have an MRI later today to determine the full extent of his injury, but the #Eagles believe they’ve avoided anything serious — which is great news for Jalen Hurts and a red-hot Philly offense. https://t.co/wawrh3FWad

CeeDee Lamb: AC Joint
The bigger question (AC joint reinjury notwithstanding) is how much Cooper Rush will force feed Lamb and how well that offense can perform. This is not likely a ceiling game overall for Lamb. In fact, his ceiling is capped ROS with Dak out. Specifically for this week though, expect a dip in YAC.
Projected Return: Week 10
Drake London: Hip/Oblique
Like Keenan Allen in 2018, London was limited all week in practice. Expect him to play with some level of limitation against the Saints. Still, fire him up everywhere despite the mild risk of reinjury.
Projected Return: Week 10
Dallas Godert: Hamstring
Should be back. Small chance of reinjury but the Eagles tend to be conservative and Godert should be safe to play at full tilt.
Projected Return: Week 10
Kyle Pitts: Hamstring
Pitts is on the report again with a hamstring issue. Even though he was a full participant, this is an issue he hasn’t been able to shake for a couple of years now. In a splitting hairs scenario, you can lean the other direction despite the good matchup.
Projected Return: Week 10
