The Philadelphia Eagles are shaking things up ahead of their huge Monday night game against the Dallas Cowboys, activating three players to their active roster. Guard Landon Dickerson is back from injured reserve, and tight ends Grant Calcaterra and Eli Stowers are also making their return to the lineup. This is big news for the Birds as they gear up for a divisional clash.
The Long Road Back to the Field
Dickerson, who started the season opener at left guard, has been sidelined for the last five games due to a knee injury. His return provides a much-needed boost to the offensive line just when they need it most. Calcaterra has been out the entire season with a back injury, a tough break that kept him off the field until now. Stowers, a second-round pick this year, has also been sidelined for all six games with a quad injury. His activation means Monday night is finally set to be his NFL debut. Imagine, a second-round talent finally getting his shot on the big stage!
What These Returns Mean for Monday Night
Beyond the activated players, cornerback Jakorian Bennett has been designated for return but he is still on injured reserve. The Eagles also brought up running back Elijah Mitchell and linebacker Keyshawn James-Newby from the practice squad on a temporary basis, adding some extra depth for the Cowboys showdown. Bringing back key starters like Dickerson and getting a talented rookie like Stowers into the mix for the first time could absolutely change the dynamic for Philadelphia in a high-stakes divisional battle.
It is going to be a tough fight on Monday night against the Cowboys, but these roster moves signal the Eagles are pulling out all the stops. While we are all watching that game, let’s not forget what our Seahawks just pulled off! Our boys in green and blue just absolutely crushed the Kansas City Chiefs, winning 20-3. Talk about overwhelming some circuitry. It was an incredible performance. We will be buzzing about that for a while here in the Emerald City.
