Jalen Carter Injury News
View AllGood News for Giants: Jalen Carter Inactive
Eagles DT Jalen Carter is inactive for tonight's game against the Giants. He popped up on the Wednesday injury report with a heel issue and entered Thursday questionable. Carter came out for warm-ups with his cleats on and had been expected to workout to determine if he would play, but that decision wound up being made with no workout.
Jalen Carter, Darius Slay iffy vs. Jets
ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that the Eagles might miss DT Jalen Carter and CB Darius Slay for Sunday's matchup with the Jets. Carter sprained an ankle in practice this week, while Slay is dealing with an ankle injury. We'll watch for official game statuses on both players later today. It doesn't sound like either injury is overly serious. And neither is a high-level IDP, though there's upside to the Zach Wilson matchup.
