The Eagles are getting their most important defender back, as head coach Nick Sirianni confirmed that the team is opening the 21-day practice window for C.J. Gardner-Johnson.
After missing five weeks following a knee scope that placed him on injured reserve, Robert Quinn will also return to practice.
Star quarterback Hurts was a limited practice participant last week while recovering from a sprained throwing shoulder. He’ll participate this week in the leadup to Sunday’s must-win matchup against the Giants.
C.J. Gardner-Johnson
Gardner-Johnson has been out since suffering a lacerated kidney in the win over Green Bay. .
His six interceptions are tied with Minkah Fitzpatrick, Justin Simmons, and Tariq Woolen for most in NFL.
Robert Quinn
The Eagles acquired Quinn from the Chicago Bears in late October before the trade deadline for a fourth-round pick. He had appeared in five games for Philadelphia and had zero sacks and two tackles before going on IR.
Quinn, 32, posted a career-high 18.5 sacks in 2021 — second most in the NFL — but registered just one sack in seven games with the Bears this season before being traded.
