As Halloween approaches, the Philadelphia Eagles face mounting challenges from offseason decisions. A significant investment in linebacker Jonathan Greenard, worth $98 million, has yielded limited results, with just one tackle in four games. The team also allowed homegrown linebacker Nakobe Dean to leave for the Raiders, where he has thrived, recording 68 tackles this season. Additionally, second-round tight end Eli Stowers has seen minimal action, with no receptions in one game. The Eagles' difficulties are compounded by injuries to key players as they prepare for a matchup against the Washington Commanders.
