Here’s today’s inactives for the NFC Battle in Philly between the Seahawks and Eagles:
Seahawks:
WR Jaron Brown
DE Jadeveon Clowney
OG Phil Haynes
RB C.J. Prosise
CB Neiko Thorpe
WR John Ursua
TE Luke Willson
Eagles:
WR Nelson Agholor
OG Nate Herbig
RB Jordan Howard
WR Alshon Jeffery
OT Lane Johnson
DE Shareef Miller
QB Nate Sudfeld
The 5-5 Eagles have enough things on their team to worry about, but one of them can’t possibly be in-fighting within their own team – can it?
There’s speculation that wide out Nelson Agholor is taking shots at quarterback Carson Wentz, using a burner twitter account to take shots at the former first overall pick.
The burner account criticized Wentz and said former Eagles QB Nick Foles throws a better ball. Here’s some screen shots of the account from Eagles Nation:
There is SPECULATION going around that Nelson Agholor POSSIBLY has a burner account (@efam33.)
Every tweet on the account is defending Agholor, and saying the blame of his struggles falls on Wentz. He even uses “us” in many cases.
What do you think? ?

Agholor came out and denied that he had anything to do with the account.

“Social media is a place where you can influence for the positive but once the energy isn’t helpful, there’s no need for it,” said Agholor.
“I have to focus on the Eagles, the guys in this locker room, and our loyal fans who need us to play well, and I have to have positive energy. It’s part of eliminating distractions.
“I hadn’t been on there, wasn’t really active on there. It was my family that was telling me about it. So I was like this makes no sense. They don’t need to be worried about that, so it was unneeded.”
The Eagles are coming off a tough home loss last week to the Patriots, and this week take on another tough opponent as they host the 8-2 Seahawks.
Here’s a preview:
The Eagles went scoreless over their last 10 possessions, and while the defense hung in, they could not overcome Tom Brady and the Pats in a 17-10 setback.
The Eagles took down the Pats in an upset in the Super Bowl two years ago, and this Sunday will look for another win against New England as they play host to Tom Brady and company.
Here’s a preview from the NFL:
Eagles fans haven’t seen left tackle Jason Peters since week six, but that could change quickly as the tackle had an arthroscopic procedure to clean up his knee and is ready to return to the lineup.
Coach Doug Pederson stated that Peters had arthroscopic surgery in the last few weeks, but is on the road to recovery and should be back soon.
The coach stated that Peters should take part in practice today, and they will look to see where he stands and go from there about him playing.
Rookie Andre Dillard has been starting in Peters’s place at the tackle spot.
Another player that could return is wide out Alshon Jeffery, he is listed as “day-to-day” with an ankle injury.
Also Pederson says he’s hoping that linebacker Nigel Bradham is ready to come back from his ankle injury to be able to take on the 8-1 Patriots at home at 4:25pm Sunday afternoon.
The Eagles wide out core took a big hit with the loss of DeSean Jackson, but the team moved quickly on Wednesday to fill the void, bringing in veteran receiver Jordan Matthews.
It’s the third time in his career that Matthews has been with the Eagles. He was a second-round pick of the Eagles in 2014.
He played three seasons with the Eagles before he was traded to the Bills, and then came back to the Eagles in 2018.
This season he started with the San Francisco 49ers, lasting just one game before he was released in late October.
The 27-year-old receiver has 270 catches for 3,255 yards and 22 touchdowns over his career.
The Eagles were winners on Sunday as they topped the Bears at home 22-14 to move to 5-4 on the year, 3-1 at home. Here’s the highlights.
