What happened: Caleb Williams returned to practice while managing a hamstring issue. Lamar Jackson missed practice again with an ankle issue. Philadelphia carries a growing injury list into Week 6 with fantasy lineups in flux.

Why it matters: Starting quarterback availability shapes game plans and depth-chart calls for Week 6. Williams practicing keeps his offense on its normal preparation track while Jackson missing time forces backup reps. Philadelphia depth faces an early-season test if multiple starters miss Sunday.

By the numbers: Williams completed 330 of 568 passes for 3,942 yards with 27 touchdowns and 7 interceptions in 17 games in 2025. Jackson completed 192 of 302 passes for 2,549 yards with 21 touchdowns and 7 interceptions in 13 games in 2025.

What to watch: Later-week practice participation will clarify Sunday availability. Final injury designations will settle Week 6 starting lineups.
