Eagles Injury Report: Darius Slay Out Again on Thursday

Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Darius Slay was the only player who did not participate in practice for the second straight day as the team prepared to face the Arizona Cardinals on New Year's Eve.

Both starting linebackers, Zach Cunningham (knee) and Nicholas Morrow (abdomen) were again listed as limited participants on Thursday for the second straight day.

Philadelphia also listed offensive guard Landon Dickerson and slot corner Avonte Maddox as a full participant.

Getting Dickerson and Maddox back would be huge for the Eagles on both sides of the ball.  Dickerson has been one of the most consistent players on the offensive line, while Maddox's return would give the Eagles a much-needed lift in the secondary.

Bradley Roby has been holding down the slot role in recent weeks and could bump outside to replace Slay, who is out with a knee injury.

With Cunningham and Morrow missing practice, the Eagles can again turn to veteran linebacker Shaq Leonard and undrafted rookie Ben VanSumeren, who played a career-high 36 snaps last week, making six tackles.
