Tom Blair and Gennaro Filice highlight one underappreciated player from each NFC team, including the Cowboys' Brandin Cooks and the Eagles' Reed Blankenship, aiming to give recognition to players who often go unnoticed despite their significant contributions.
Safety Reed Blankenship has agreed to a one-year contract extension with the Philadelphia Eagles through the 2025 season, following his impressive performance in the 2023 season where he recorded 108 total tackles, 3 interceptions, and 11 passes defensed. Despite going undrafted, Blankenship has become a key player for the Eagles and is focused on continuous improvement in his game.
Eagles' starting safety Reed Blankenship is officially inactive for the wild-card game against the Buccaneers due to a groin injury, joining rookie safety Sydney Brown on the sidelines. With only one healthy safety on the roster, Avonte Maddox is expected to play alongside veteran Kevin Byard. Meanwhile, Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield is active despite dealing with rib and ankle injuries. If the Eagles win, they will face the Lions in the next round, while the Buccaneers enter the game with five wins in their last six matches, compared to the Eagles' five losses in their last six.
The Philadelphia Eagles announced their inactives for the NFL playoffs wild card game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, with A.J. Brown, Sydney Brown, Reed Blankenship, Rashaad Penny, Moro Ojomo, Tyler Steen, and Tanner McKee not playing. Blankenship was a game-time decision but was unable to go through pregame warmups, leading to Avonte Maddox potentially filling in at safety. Meanwhile, the Buccaneers' inactives include Baker Mayfield, K.J. Britt, and Josh Hayes being active despite previous injury designations.
The Philadelphia Eagles' injury report reveals that three starters, Darius Slay, Zach Cunningham, and Cam Jurgens, did not participate in practice, raising concerns about their availability for the upcoming game against the Seattle Seahawks. However, there is good news as safety Reed Blankenship has been upgraded to full participation and is expected to clear the concussion protocol in time for Monday's game.
