Eagles Coach Nick Sirianni Considers Resting Key Players in Week 18 vs. New York Giants
The Philadelphia Eagles seem destined for the No. 5 seed, so the game on the bad turf at MetLife Stadium may not be worth the risk as the team prepares for the playoffs.
PHILADELPHIA – DeVonta Smith showed up at the Philadelphia Eagles facility on New Year’s Day Monday still using crutches to get around and with his right foot encased in the same hard-shell walking boot he wore after their 35-31 loss to the Arizona Cardinals a day earlier.
It’s a long shot he plays on Sunday when the Eagles take on the New York Giants in the regular-season finale on the terrible turf at MetLife Stadium. It would be the first game Smith would miss since being drafted, a string of 50 straight games.
