Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles will try to defend their Super Bowl title with their core group of stars intact on offense. Saquon Barkley, A.J. Brown, and DeVonta Smith are ready to maintain their dominance in the NFL.

However, it will not be an easy task. The NFC East looks set to be very competitive with the rise of Jayden Daniels and the Washington Commanders, as well as the Cowboys having a very respectable offense with Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, and George Pickens.

Additionally, their biggest threat could come from the AFC, with Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs seeking revenge after last season’s events. Because of this, the Eagles cannot afford to lose focus, and with just a few days until the start of the regular season, injuries are beginning to become a problem.

Who got injured with Eagles?

Johnny Wilson suffered a knee injury and also an ankle injury, which will keep him out for the entire 2025 season. The Philadelphia Eagles confirmed the devastating news by officially placing the player on the Injured Reserve list.

Wilson joined the Eagles in the sixth round of the 2024 Draft, and during training camp and the preseason, he was competing for a spot on the roster at the wide receiver position.
