The Philadelphia Eagles just released their inactives list for Week 6 and Darius Slay will start at cornerback after clearing the concussion protocol. Jalen Hurts will again be the backup quarterback for the Birds who’ll be without DeSean Jackson, Alshon Jeffery, and Lane Johnson among others.

Slay suffered a concussion last Sunday against the Steelers and was questionable on Friday’s game status report. Eagles cornerback Avonte Maddox remains out with an ankle injury. Safety Will Parks, who was activated off Injured Reserve on Saturday, is set to make his Eagles debut and provide additional help in the secondary.
Defensive end Vinny Curry, who was also activated off Injured Reserve on Saturday, is active for the first time since the season opener.
Adam Schefter reported on Sunday morning that DeSean Jackson would indeed return to the Eagles lineup in four days when they host the New York Giants on Thursday Night Football.
