[Schefter] Eagles ruled out CB Jaire Alexander for Monday night’s game in Green Bay. The team believes he still is acclimating to the defensive system, still recovering from a knee injury and it decided it was best for him to stay back to focus on his recovery

Not good maybe they found something else wrong with his knee, COPEING RIGHT NOW!
I don’t have high hopes for Jaire, but am excited to see what Vic does with Carter added to the mix and now Bennett being back.
I guess it’s Michael Carter then
Just want to be free of Ringo, guessing Adoree will start. Would like to see Bennett though
I don’t really care watever happens with him, low risk high reward. Maybe he gets healthy.
Kinda expected ngl. I think he can be good but let him learn the system so he can gain more confidence
There is still a lot of football. No need to rush a guy especially with injury concerns. Good call.
Ringo has been playing well. Hope he has another great showing
Probably for the best, don’t want him pulling his hammy in that cold ass weather anyways
Yeah he’s washed
Why they permit him to pass his physical if he’s still injured?
To be honest, the fact he’s still recovering from the knee might be good news, because it means he’s never been 100 percent this year.
Happy we get to possibly at least see Michael Carter.
Considering this is a short week it makes sense.
Can we see some Bennet?
Did not expect him to play
Imagine Jaire gets healthy in Philly and him and q and coop turn up for O tds allowed in da playoffs 😭
He’ll be starting next game all good 🦅🦅🦅
FIRE HOWIE!1?
The most expected move of the week
He was a depth pickup for almost nothing. There’s no rush to get him in there. I’d rather have him as a viable option down the stretch.
They could really use that roster spot. Maybe 4 weeks is exactly what he needs.
I’d have to imagine Fangio’s defence takes quite some time to learn. Our team is good enough that we don’t need to throw someone out there who’s not ready.
I don’t mind this route, just seems weird to announce it like this. Injured players travel all the time with team so I don’t understand this one at all. Especially since his familiarity with GB, you’d think you’d want him on sideline to offer anything he can
Hell yeah. Did NOT want him on the field for any important plays. 0 plays in any situation is great news.
This will give Bennett and Carter Jr. opportunities to work out who will be a backup and who will be the potential starter.
Let him rest
He’s not good so this isn’t much news really.
This makes sense although I’d have liked to see him get at least a few game reps. Still not sure if he’s got anything left but want to give him the benefit of the doubt after surgery last January.
