DOUG PEDERSON: First of all, good morning. Let me update you on these injuries: So, the only two that we have that won’t practice today – and they’re really still kind of week-to-week – are Kamu [Grugier-Hill] with the hamstring strain and Bennie Logan with the left groin strain. So, both of those [guys] will not practice today.

LONDON – Given the events of Sunday afternoon in Twickenham Stadium, a more appropriate dateline for this story would be LANDON.
The Eagles rebounded from their two-game losing streak with an ugly, turnover filled 21-10 win over the previously undefeated Minnesota Vikings at Lincoln Financial Field.
The Eagles (4-2) moved to within a game of the idle NFC East-leading Dallas Cowboys (5-1) who are on their bye week.
In addition to suffering their second consecutive loss of the still-young season to the Washington Redskins last week, the Eagles most likely lost starting defensive tackle Bennie Logan fore at least one game.
Logan has not practice this week and it looks more and more like third-year tackle Beau Allen will tapped by Pederson to start this week when the Birds (3-2) take on Sam Bradford and the undefeated Minnesota Vikings at the Linc (FOX 1 p.m. 94.1 FM WIP).
The Washington Redskins Media Relations staff issued a note release with lots of information about their well-earned win over the Philadelphia Eagles. There are about 41 notes in this release. And despite rushing for 230 yards (493 total) and holding a highly regarded defensive line that included Fletcher Cox to zero sacks, not one offensive lineman’s name made their release. On the Defensive line. only end Ricky Jean Francois made the report. #norespect
From Footballstories to Redskins fans – your lines:
Starting offensive line: Trent Williams, Shawn Lauvao, Spencer Long, Brandon Scherff, Morgan Moses.
Starting defensive line: Ricky Jean Francois, Ziggy Hood, Chris Baker plus backups Cullen Jenkins, Matt Ioannidis, Anthony Lanier
The Eagles only touchdowns came on special teams and defense. Despite a bad day of the offense, the Eagles were in the game against the Washington Redskins until the last drive.
Early in the season, Odell Beckham, Jr. was generating attention for penalties and confrontations with cornerbacks. Now he’s back to doing what he does best, making big plays when the Giants must have them and thrilling fans in the stadium and television viewers around the country.
The Bloom is off the rose.
No one really believed the Eagles, with their rookie head coach and quarterback were going to roll through the 2016 schedule the way they did the first three weeks when the Birds jumped out to a 3-0 record.
