The Philadelphia Eagles placed running back Tank Bigsby on injured reserve after he suffered a core muscle injury during their 24-20 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. This injury compounds uncertainty in the Eagles’ backfield as Saquon Barkley is also dealing with a hamstring injury. Bigsby’s absence means Will Shipley is currently the only healthy running back on the active roster, although the team may consider promoting players from the practice squad before their upcoming game in London against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Eagles also released linebacker Anfernee Orji from their practice squad, allowing them to address roster needs prior to traveling.
