Eagles-Rams Final Injury Report: DeVonta Smith and Zack Baun among 6 players ruled OUT

Smith is dealing with a hamstring injury that prevented him from practicing this week. Reports indicate he could miss another game or two after this weekend . Not great for the Eagles to be missing their top receiver at all, let alone against some tough opponents. With Smith and Brown out, the Eagles will be down to the following five receivers: Dontayvion Wicks, Makai Lemon, Elijah Moore, Darius Cooper, and Britain Covey. Wicks figures to be the Eagles' No. 1 target in Smith's absence. Lemon could also see increased opportunities … just hopefully not in the entirely predictable screen reception variety. Moore played more snaps than Cooper last week despite being a healthy scratch in either of the first two games. The Eagles might trust Moore to play more on offense, even though Cooper has shown potential there. Cooper could still get some more chances than usual while also playing on special teams. Covey is the Eagles' punt returner.

Baun is missing a game for non-rest reasons for the first time since joining the Eagles. He wasn't able to practice this week due to a concussion. His absence means that Jeremiah Trotter Jr. will make his first career start in a game where the Eagles aren't resting starters. It'll be interesting to see how Trot Jr. fares. He has some athletic limitations but he's very savvy and plays with great anticipation. Smael Mondon will be the top backup. The Eagles could look to temporarily elevate newcomer Anfernee Orji for emergency depth and special teams purposes. Chance Campbell was placed on the practice squad injured reserve list earlier this week.

Goedert is missing his second straight game due to a knee injury. And so the Eagles will be without both their top wide receiver and top tight end against the Rams. Goedert's absence means the Birds will roll with Zach Ertz, Johnny Mundt, and E.J. Jenkins as their tight ends on Sunday. Mundt played the most snaps of any player at his position in Week 3 but Ertz had just rejoined the team days prior. We'll see if Ertz's workload increases at all. Also will be interesting to see if the team leans more into 12 personnel with DeVonta out.
