Eagles inactives for today’s meaningless Cowboys-Eagles game are RB Jay Ajayi, DE Derek Barnett, LB Nigel Bradham, DT Timmy Jernigan, S Rodney McLeod, and CB Jalen Mills. So it look’s like HC Doug Pederson is just keeping it safe today, especially on defense.
Eagles inactives: J.Ajayi, D.Barnett, N.Bradham, B.Graham, T.Jernigan, R.McLeod, J.Mills.

Due to CB Jalen Mill’s absence, expect newly activated Sidney Jones to fill the void, because NFL Insider Adam Schefter tweeted earlier this morning that Jones will get around 25 snaps today, and even some on special teams. Pretty interesting to see what he can do on the field. Don’t get to excited though, Jones hasn’t been on a college football field for almost a year, let alone an NFL field against the 8-7 Cowboys.
Eagles’ second-round pick Sidney Jones is expected to make his NFL debut today, playing about 25 or so plays, and even some on special teams, per source.
