Eagles vs. Giants Injury Report

Head Coach Nick Sirianni disclosed on Monday that starting left tackle Jordan Mailata will miss this Sunday’s game against the New York Giants with a hamstring injury.

Fred Johnson, who has subbed in at both right and left tackle this season, is an option to start for Mailata. Right guard Mekhi Becton, who has started 28 career games at left tackle from his time with the New York Jets, said he would be ready if needed to fill in.

On Monday, Sirianni didn’t have an update on the conditions of tight end Dallas Goedert (hamstring) and cornerback Darius Slay (knee), who exited Sunday’s game early along with Mailata.
