We’re now hours from kicking off the NFC Championship game, and Eagles Pro Bowl center Cam Jurgens will be inactive after testing out his injured back.
With Jurgens expected to be ruled out, Tyler Steen will shift to the left guard spot, and Landon Dickerson will start at the center position.
Cam Jurgens (back) is unable to go, per source. #Eagles will slide Landon Dickerson from LG to center and have Tyler Steen at LG.
Dickerson has played a little center in the NFL — 7 snaps this year, 35 last year — but it was his primary position at Alabama his senior season.…

Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert declared he was “good to go.” He was a full participant and has no game status designation for Sunday.
Jurgens, meanwhile, was a limited participant and is questionable for Sunday. Landon Dickerson took reps at center this week in case Jurgens cannot play.
Quarterback Jalen Hurts (knee) was a full participant on Friday and has no game status designation.
The Eagles ruled out two players on Injured Reserve, who have returned to practice – wide receiver Britain Covey (neck) and defensive tackle Byron Young (hamstring).
Covey’s absence means that Cooper DeJean will continue to handle punt returns.
