    The Philadelphia Eagles (3-2) kicked off Week 7 pretty banged up ahead their road match against the New York Giants.

    Three starters, including tight end Dallas Goedert (hamstring), left tackle Jordan Mailata (hamstring), and defensive tackle Milton Williams (ankle) did not practice.

    Meanwhile, cornerback Darius Slay (knee), outside linebacker Jaylx Hunt (ankle) and inside linebacker Oren Burks (groin) were limited.

    Below is the Eagles' injury report following Wednesday's practice:

    Eagles Wednesday Week 7 Injury Report

    Eagles Week 7 Injury Report Observations

    • Jordan Mailata exited Sunday's win over the Cleveland Browns early and will miss a couple of weeks
    • Dallas Goedert also left last week's game with an injury and is expected to miss a few games.
    • Darius Slay was also injured, but the Eagles dodged a more serious injury with him as he is considered "day-to-day" and should be available vs. the Giants.
    • Milton Williams is a surprise name but we will see what Thursday brings before drawing any concerns.
    • Sydney Brown returned to practice last week after rehabbing an ACL injury he suffered last season. The Eagles plan to ease him back into the lineup.
    • Rookie wideout Ainias Smith also returned to practice for the first time last week since injuring his ankle in the preseason.
    • The Eagles have two weeks left to activate Smith and Brown.
    • Albert Okwuegbunam returned from injured reserve on Wednesday. The Eagles have three weeks to active him to the roster. That will likely happen sooner rather than later with Goedert injured.
