The Eagles entered Sunday pleased with what the staff had seen from their starters during joint practices in Berea, Ohio, and the idea was that certain players would rest.
On Sunday, with rainy and windy conditions prevalent at FirstEnergy Stadium, Philadelphia decided to sit 26 players for various reasons.
The following #Eagles aren't in uniform:
Offense: Jalen Hurts, A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, Dallas Goedert, Miles Sanders (hamstring), Jordan Mailata, Landon Dickerson, Jason Kelce (elbow), Isaac Seumalo, Lane Johnson, Greg Ward (toe), Grant Calcaterra (hamstring).

Jalen Hurts, A.J. Brown, and the entire offense line headlined the starters on offense who were held out, while the starting defensive line, linebackers, and cornerbacks were held out of action.
