What happened: Philadelphia Eagles wide receivers DeVonta Smith and Dontayvion Wicks will not play Sunday against the New York Giants. Smith is sidelined by a hamstring injury, while Wicks is out due to an ankle injury. Neither receiver participated in Friday's practice ahead of the divisional matchup.

Why it matters: The absences deplete Philadelphia's passing attack as the team attempts to halt a six-game skid and climb from last place in the NFC East. At 2-6 in 2026 through eight games, the Eagles face a pivotal test against a 4-2-1 Giants squad holding first place in the division.

By the numbers: Wicks has caught 19 passes for 284 yards and 1 touchdown in 2026 through 6 games. Philadelphia is 2-6 in 2026 through 8 games, while New York holds a 4-2-1 record in 2026 through 7 games.

What to watch: Philadelphia faces New York on Sunday, with the Eagles needing a victory to snap their six-game skid.
