The Eagles have ruled CB Avonte Maddox (ankle) out for Sunday's game against the Jaguars. Maddox injured an ankle in Thursday's practice and then missed Friday's workout. His absence improves the matchup for Jacksonville slot WR Christian Kirk.

Eagles slot CB Avonte Maddox will have surgery this week for the pectoral muscle he tore in Thursday night's win over the Vikings. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that Maddox is out "indefinitely" and could miss the rest of the season. That's usually the case for pectoral tears. Philly -- which is also dealing with injuries to starting CB James Bradberry (concussion) and S Reed Blankenship (ribs) -- turned to undrafted rookie Mario Goodrich after Maddox left. The Eagles have allowed each of their first two opponents to exceed 350 yards passing and could remain a favorable passing matchup.

Eagles CB Avonte Maddox (ankle) is out for Sunday's game against the Cardinals. That will be good news for WR Rondale Moore, if he's back to running primarily out of the slot this Sunday. Eagles outside CB Darius Slay, meanwhile, carries no injury designation into the game after leaving Week 4 early with a forearm issue.
