\n Friday’s Injury Report<\/p>\n
Fred Johnson will start at right tackle this Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders.<\/p>\n
Johnson suffered an ankle injury that limited him in Thursday’s practice, but he returned on Friday as a full participant and has no game status designation.<\/p>\n
“The ankle is feeling great,” Johnson said after practice on Friday.<\/p>\n
Johnson’s availability will be key as he will see plenty of Raiders defensive end Maxx Crosby on Sunday. Crosby has nine sacks and 25 tackles for loss this season.<\/p>\n
“I think one thing; his motor is always running,” Head Coach Nick Sirianni said of Crosby. “He is relentless to the football, never stopping. I always say to our team, there’s something dangerous about a team that doesn’t stop coming after you. I feel like that’s how he is and that’s how good D-Ends are. He can rush a passer, he can stop the run. He’s physical, he’s fast, he’s quick, he’s athletic. He’s an outstanding football player.”<\/p>\n
The Eagles will be without starting right tackle Lane Johnson, who will miss his fourth straight game with a foot injury that he suffered in the November 16 win over the Lions. Lane Johnson has yet to practice since the injury.<\/p>\n
The Eagles will also be without All-Pro defensive tackle Jalen Carter for the second game in a row due to injuries to both shoulders. Byron Young and Brandon Graham replaced Carter’s snaps along the interior of the defensive line.<\/p>\n
