What happened: Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith and running back Saquon Barkley did not participate in Thursday's practice. Both players are managing hamstring injuries and have missed two consecutive sessions.

Why it matters: Barkley sustained his injury during Sunday's game, while Smith missed Week 4 entirely with a hamstring issue. Their continued absences put their availability in doubt for Philadelphia's upcoming weekend matchup.

What to watch: Friday's injury report will provide official game statuses for both offensive starters.
