Jalen Carter DT | PHI
Eagles' Jalen Carter: Ready for Super Bowl LIX
Carter practiced in full Friday and does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's matchup against the Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX.
Carter logged a trio of full practice sessions this week despite being listed with a groin injury. The standout second-year pro notched 4.5 sacks over 16 regular-season appearances this season, plus 2.0 sacks across three postseason games. Carter will fill his usual role at the helm of Philadelphia's interior defensive line, which may also receive a boost via the activation of Brandon Graham (elbow) from IR.

Brandon Graham DE | PHI
Eagles' Brandon Graham: Officially listed as questionable
Graham (elbow), who remains on injured reserve, practiced in full Friday and is officially listed as questionable for Super Bowl LIX against the Chiefs on Sunday.
Graham said Wednesday that he expects to be activated to the 53-man roster and play versus Kansas City, but the Eagles will have to make such a move official by Saturday's deadline. The 34-year-old edge rusher is recovering from November surgery for a triceps tear, and Friday was his first time practicing in full since sustaining the injury.

C.J. Uzomah TE | PHI
Eagles' C.J. Uzomah: Questionable for Super Bowl
Uzomah (abdomen), who remains on IR, practiced in full Friday and is officially listed as questionable for Super Bowl LIX on Sunday.
Uzomah continues to practice in full, a sign that he's healthy enough to contribute during the Super Bowl, but the Eagles will need to officially activate the veteran tight end to the 53-man roster by Saturday's deadline in order for him to compete versus Kansas City. If Uzomah is activated in time to suit up Sunday, he'll slot in behind Dallas Goedert and Grant Calcaterra on the positional depth chart.

Cam Jurgens C | PHI
Eagles' Cam Jurgens: Cleared to face Kansas City
Jurgens (back) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's Super Bowl LIX matchup versus Kansas City.
Jurgens practiced in full this week, and both he and LG Landon Dickerson (knee) are cleared to play Sunday. Jurgens was unable to start the NFC Championship Game two weeks ago against the Commanders but did come on in relief after Dickerson went down with an injury. Jurgens should be back at center for the Super Bowl, allowing Dickerson to kick back to left guard.

Landon Dickerson OG | PHI
Eagles' Landon Dickerson: Good to go for Super Bowl
Dickerson (knee) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's Super Bowl LIX matchup against the Chiefs.
Dickerson practiced in full throughout the week and is ready to go for Sunday's date with Chris Jones and the interior of the Chiefs' defensive line. With Cam Jurgens (back) also good to go, Dickerson be back at his normal left guard position.

Britain Covey WR | PHI
Eagles' Britain Covey: Ruled out for Super Bowl
Covey (neck), who remains on IR, practiced in full Friday and has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX.
Covey won't be activated from IR in time to contribute for the Super Bowl, despite his evident health at practice. In addition to his efforts as a punt returner, the 27-year-old logged seven catches for 34 yards on eight targets across his five regular-season appearances.

Kenneth Gainwell RB | PHI
Eagles' Kenneth Gainwell: Set for Super Bowl
Gainwell (concussion/knee) doesn't carry a designation into Sunday's Super Bowl LIX matchup versus the Chiefs.
Since sustaining a concussion in the NFC Championship Game on Jan. 26, Gainwell didn't take part in drills last week, but a limited session Wednesday was followed by back-to-back uncapped practices. Now, with no designation to speak of, he's gained clearance from an independent neurologist and thus is good to serve as the direct backup to workhorse RB Saquon Barkley this weekend. In three postseason games so far, Gainwell has combined for 10 touches for 58 yards from scrimmage.

DeVonta Smith WR | PHI
Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Clear for Super Bowl
Smith (hamstring) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's Super Bowl LIX matchup against the Chiefs.
Smith followed up no activity during the first week of Super Bowl prep with three consecutive capped sessions this week due to a hamstring injury. Despite the limitations along the way, he's cleared for Sunday's game, looking to build upon the 12-121-0 line on 12 targets that he's accrued so far in three playoff contests.
-
Skyy Moore WR | KC
Chiefs' Skyy Moore: Officially doubtful for Super Bowl
Moore (abdomen), who remains on IR, was limited in practice Friday and is officially listed as doubtful for Super Bowl LIX against the Eagles on Sunday.
Moore doesn't appear likely to be activated to the 53-man roster from IR in time to contribute in the Super Bowl against Philadelphia on Sunday. The 2022 second-round pick didn't record a catch on three targets across his six regular-season appearances in 2024.

The Jets signed Beck to a one-year contract Friday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Beck appeared in four regular-season games with the Texans in 2024, in addition to the team's divisional-round loss to the Chiefs. Now, the veteran fullback will spend the offseason competing to carve out a role with New York.
