A positive COVID-19 test means a 10-day isolation period, while vaccinated players can return after receiving two negative tests within a 24-hour period.

Earlier this week, the Eagles placed WR Quez Watkins and RB Jason Huntley on the Reserve/COVID-19 list.

Philadelphia is currently at 6-7, tied with Washington, Minnesota, Atlanta and New Orleans for the 7th and final NFC Wildcard spot, while Carolina and Seattle sit one game back at 5-8.

The Eagles opened as four point favorites, but that line has since jumped to nine points as more WFT players continue to be added to the COVID-19 list.
