The Philadelphia Eagles face the Jacksonville Jaguars in London on Sunday with a depleted offense and several players returning from injuries. Saquon Barkley and DeVonta Smith are among five players ruled out, while outside linebacker Jonathan Greenard is listed as questionable for the Week 5 matchup.
Current status: Expected to play
The Eagles expect Zack Baun to be available against the Jaguars after the linebacker finished the week with a full practice and no game designation.
Philadelphia faces Jacksonville in London in Week 5.
He is expected to be available. Zack Baun has no game designation, although the official inactive list remains the final confirmation before kickoff.
Baun was a full participant Friday after being limited Wednesday and Thursday. Philadelphia did not designate him for a game.
Philadelphia needs Baun in the middle of its defense against Trevor Lawrence and Jacksonville’s running game. His availability gives the Eagles a familiar presence to handle run fits, underneath coverage, and communication.
