Eagles rule out Saquon Barkley and DeVonta Smith against Jaguars
The Philadelphia Eagles will be without running back Saquon Barkley and wide receiver DeVonta Smith against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London.
Barkley has a hamstring injury suffered in last week's loss to the Rams, and Smith is also out with a hamstring injury.
The Eagles have struggled this season, and losing two key offensive players leaves them with fewer options for the game.
Jacksonville has two players listed: cornerback Jaylon Jones is out, and safety Eric Murray is doubtful.
Elsewhere, Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams is questionable against the Green Bay Packers after missing two games with a hamstring injury.
He was limited in practice Friday, while backup Tyson Bagent started in his absence last week.
The teams' final injury designations show which players are unavailable or uncertain ahead of Week 5.
