The Eagles secondary has battled injuries through the first six weeks of the season, and they’ll face the NFL’s most explosive offense without starter Reed Blankenship and slot cornerback Bradley Roby.
Derrick Gunn is reporting that Blankenship will miss Sunday night’s matchup with a rib injury, while Roby suffered a shoulder injury in the loss to the Jets.
Sources have confirmed to me that both Reed Blankenship and Bradley Roby are out for Sunday nights game vs Miami … Eagles 2ndary continues to take big hits.

Philadelphia hopes to have defensive tackle Jalen Carter back.
At the same time, Sydney Brown will look to make his first NFL start and significant game action after missing three games with a hamstring injury.
