Eagles-Chargers Week 14 Injury Report: Who Is Playing in Los Angeles?
The Philadelphia Eagles were completely outclassed last week as the Chicago Bears ran all over them on Black Friday. Now the Eagles will be forced to travel across the country to visit the Los Angeles Chargers without star defensive tackle Jalen Carter in Week 14.
While Philadelphia could be welcoming back a potential starting option at safety, Los Angeles is dealing with injuries of their own. Chargers star quarterback Justin Herbert underwent surgery following last week’s win, yet he could still somehow play against the Eagles.
Here is the updated injury report for both the Eagles and the Chargers ahead of Monday night’s game.
Eagles Injury Report
Thursday, December 4th
Jalen Carter and Lane Johnson were the only players that did not participate during Thursday’s practice, as expected. Carter underwent a procedure on both shoulders this past Monday, according to multiple reports. There’s a chance that both players could return in Week 15.
Jaelan Phillips was listed among four limited participants during Thursday’s practice. Phillips suffering a concussion is notable because he medically retired from UCLA in 2018 due to a concussion and other injuries.
Marcus Epps was a full participant in his first practice since having his 21-day practice window opened. This is notable since Epps could start if he is activated and added to the 53-man roster before Monday night’s game.
Friday, December 5th
The alarms went off in Philadelphia after Landon Dickerson wasn’t spotted by reporters in attendance at practice. Yet Dickerson did not participate during Friday’s practice because of a rest day. He will be good to go for Week 14.
Xavier Gipson was upgraded to a full participant after initially being limited during Thursday’s practice. It’ll be interesting to see what happens with Gipson now that Britain Covey was added to the 53-man roster last week.
Saturday, December 6th
Both Jalen Carter and Lane Johnson were officially ruled out for Week 14, as expected.
Marcus Epps and Myles Hinton are the only players listed as questionable. Both players are still on injured reserve and will need to be added to the 53-man roster to play. My guess is that Epps will be activated and they’ll wait until next week to make a decision on Hinton.
The five other players that appeared on this week’s injury report are good to go, including Jaelan Phillips, who was a full participant for the first time on Saturday.
Chargers Injury Report
Thursday, December 4th
Despite undergoing surgery on his left hand, Justin Herbert was a limited participant during Thursday’s practice. It seems like Herbert will at least try to suit up and play against the Eagles in Week 14.
Both Omarion Hampton and Hassan Haskins were limited participants during Thursday’s practice. Hampton was leading Los Angeles’ backfield before landing on injured reserve. He is now eligible to return and would provide a massive boost for the Chargers, if activated ahead of Monday night.
Quentin Johnston got off to a scorching hot start in 2025, yet he has since battled multiple injuries. Johnston was officially listed as limited during Thursday’s practice due to a shoulder injury.
Friday, December 5th
Tucker Fisk was the only Chargers player that did not participate during Friday’s practice. He remained out due to an ankle injury.
Justin Herbert was the only Chargers player that was a limited participant during Friday’s practice. Herbert was seen working from under center but wasn’t actually taking snaps, as he started with the football in his hands.
Everyone else was upgraded to a full participant for the Chargers, including standout rookie running back Omarion Hampton, who is on injured reserve.
Saturday, December 6th
The Chargers officially ruled out Tucker Fisk, who was unable to practice all week due to an ankle injury.
Justin Herbert, Omarion Hampton and Otito Ogbonnia are all officially questionable for Monday night’s game. The Chargers, including Herbert himself, have said all week that they expect the star quarterback to play in Week 14. It’s also worth noting that both Jordan Schultz and Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reported that Hampton will be activated from injured reserve and play against the Eagles.
