The drama heading into practice on Sunday was already high in the wake of Andre Dillard's season-ending injury.

That was overshadowed shortly after practice began as NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported that Wentz was not practicing due to a soft tissue injury.

#Eagles QB Carson Wentz is day-to-day with a minor soft tissue injury and isn’t practicing today. It’s considered minor and the team is being cautious and making sure he's good to go for the season.

The good news is that it is considered minor and the team has been extra cautious with key players this preseason, so this should not affect him long-term.

Despite that, it is still something to watch.

Though not surprising, the new was made official on Thursday: no fans will be in attendance at Philadelphia Eagles home games.

The team pushed their message out through their social media platforms shortly after the state and city confirmed the news.

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the City of Philadelphia confirmed on Thursday that hosting fans at Lincoln Financial Field will not be permitted until further notice.

This is, of course, due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic as the state and local government hope to continue to control the spread of the virus by banning public gatherings that could serve to further spread the disease.

It was Wednesday that the Eagles got the news that Genard Avery would miss a significant amount of time with a knee injury.

Less than 24 hours later, the team has received even worse injury news regarding their starting left tackle.

According to the NFL Network's Mike Garafolo, the injury has been confirmed as a biceps tear that will require surgery.

#Eagles left tackle Andre Dillard will miss this season with a biceps injury suffered in practice today, sources say. @RealDGunn first on the injury earlier. Tests revealed the team’s fears were warranted. Surgery needed. Tough one for last year’s first-round pick.

With just two weeks until the season starts, the Eagles roster is ever in flux as they continue to sign and waive guys at different positions throughout camp.

Among the recent transactions was the removal of Casey Tucker for Travis Fulgham and the re-signing of Trevor Williams after a week of Sidney Jones not touching the field.

Tuesday morning, it was announced that the team was signing Tyrone Swoopes.

The Eagles had their first week of padded practice and not all things went as fans had hoped.

Injury news has been released throughout the week since practices began.

On Monday, fans received news of two potentially serious injuries to a pair of key defensive linemen while Wednesday brought a status update on running back Miles Sanders.

On Friday, news came out on star tight end Dallas Goedert as Tom Pellisero of the NFL Network reports the tight end suffered a thumb fracture during the week.

#Eagles TE Dallas Goedert suffered a hairline fracture in one of his thumbs in practice this week, source said. It's not a major injury. Could be back with a splint as soon as next week.

The Eagles are aware of the shortcoming of their wide receiver room last season.

Much of the team's draft capital for 2020 was spent on that issue, with draft weekend bringing in three speedy new rookies at the position as well as a veteran with game-breaking speed.

Of course, Goodwin opted out of the 2020 season, so that was one less addition competing for a spot.

On Thursday, the team brought in another young player to compete at the position.

The Eagles held their first padded practice of the season on Monday and got some pretty poor news in regards to the defensive line.

On Wednesday, the Eagles announced another week-to-week injury. This time the victim was running back Miles Sanders.

An injury to Sanders is not a major surprise considering his recent, and since-deleted, cryptic tweet that read "Can’t catch a break".

Sanders did follow that up with another since-deleted tweet that read, "Keep calm y’all lol I’m ready for the season", both originally posed on August 11.

It is day one of padded practice for the Eagles, an exciting development for fans.

Some of that excitement was tempered, however, by the Eagles announcements of injuries.

Chief among those injuries were two potentially major ones to defensive linemen.

No specifics on injuries were given and no press conferences were scheduled for Monday, so the injury descriptions are vague for the time being.

For the Eagles, Monday marked the start of their padded practices.

It is a welcome sight for many, but came with a bit of an odd move.

The team announced Monday morning that they were waiving Kyle Lauletta and had re-signed Marcus Green.
