Eagles defensive coordinator Vic Fangio said Tuesday it would take something "miraculous" for Hunt (ankle) to play Week 6 against the Panthers, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Hunt was seen wearing a walking boot Sunday, after leaving early in the Eagles' 19-17 Week 5 loss to the Jaguars. If the 25-year-old is unable to play, Arnold Ebiketie could see more playing time alongside Jonathan Greenard at edge.

Eagles' Jalen Carter: Terrorizes Lawrence in London
Rotowire
Carter logged five tackles (three solo), including 2.0 sacks, one pass defense and two forced fumbles during the Eagles' 19-17 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday in London.
Carter gave the Jaguars' offensive line all kinds of problems during Sunday's loss, with the fourth-year defensive lineman stripping the ball on each of his two sacks on Trevor Lawrence, though the Jaguars recovered the ball on both occasions. It was the first multi-sack game of the season for Carter and third of his career, with his last instance taking place in Week 7 of the 2024 season against the Giants. He's up to 13 tackles (seven solo), including 3.0 sacks, one pass defense and three forced fumbles through the first five games of the regular season.

Eagles' Jalyx Hunt: Seen with walking boot after loss
Rotowire
Hunt (ankle/knee) was seen wearing a walking boot on his left leg after the Eagles' 19-17 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Hunt exited the contest after sustaining multiple injuries on the last play of the first half. The strongside linebacker's immediate placement in a boot is not a good sign for his chances of playing in the Eagles' Week 6 matchup with the Panthers.

Hunt (ankle/knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London.

Eagles' Michael Carter: Ruled out of game
Rotowire
Carter (abdomen) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London.
Carter exited Sunday's game with an abdominal issue and will not return to the contest. Kenny Moore has taken over at strong safety.
Hunt required assistance off the field at the end of the second quarter of Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London due to an apparent lower-body injury, Jimmy Kempski of PhillyVoice.com reports.
After the Eagles defense stuffed Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten at the goal line on a fourth-and-goal to close out the first half, Hunt emerged from the play in considerable pain. The Eagles initially brought a cart out for the linebacker, but he was able to instead walk off the field while being supported by team trainers. The team should provide an update on his status following halftime, but he would appear to be questionable to return.

Trotter was ejected from Sunday's game in London after receiving an unnecessary roughness penalty for fighting with the Jaguars' Bryan Thomas following the opening kickoff, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

Uar Bernard: Moved to practice squad injured list
Rotowire
The Eagles placed Bernard (undisclosed) on the practice squad injured list Friday.
The seventh-round rookie suffered an unknown injury in practice and will need to miss at least four weeks on the practice squad IR. Bernard was unable to retain a spot on the Eagles' 53-man roster and was moved to the practice squad after August's cutdown day to provide additional depth to the team's defensive line.

Eagles' Marcus Epps: Ruled out vs. Jacksonville
Rotowire
Epps (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.
Epps will miss a second consecutive game due to a groin injury. His next chance to play is Week 6 against the Panthers on Sunday, Oct. 18, though he would need to practice in at least a limited capacity to have a realistic shot at returning against Carolina. Michael Carter should once again start next to Andrew Mukuba at safety in Epps' absence.

Eagles' Jonathan Greenard: Tagged as questionable despite Friday DNP
Rotowire
Greenard (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against Jacksonville.
Greenard was held out of practice all week due to an ankle injury he sustained against the Rams in Week 4. Despite the lack of practice, the Eagles are still keeping the door open for Greenard to play Sunday, but if he's not cleared to suit up, then Jalyx Hunt, Arnold Ebiketie and A.J. Epenesa would all be in line for more defensive snaps.

Eagles' Jihaad Campbell: Cleared to play versus Jacksonville
Rotowire
Campbell (knee) does not have an injury designation against the Jaguars on Sunday.
Campbell tweaked his knee during the Eagles' Week 4 loss to the Rams, but the second-year linebacker was able to log a full practice Friday, which was enough for him to fade an injury tag for Sunday's road game. Campbell has 37 tackles (24 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one forced fumble through the first four games of the regular season.
Baun (concussion) does not have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.
Baun logged a full practice Friday and passed an evaluation from an independent neurologist, which is enough for the seventh-year pro to exit the NFL's concussion protocol and return from a one-game absence. His return means Jeremiah Trotter will likely revert to a rotational role at linebacker behind Baun and Jihaad Campbell.

Eagles' Quinyon Mitchell: Full participation in Thursday's practice
Rotowire
Mitchell (knee) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
Mitchell suffered a knee injury during the Week 4 loss to the Rams. He was scheduled to undergo imaging Monday. However, Mitchell's availability at practice Thursday suggests things went well, meaning he will likely be on the field in Week 5 versus the Jaguars, barring a setback.

Eagles' Marcus Epps: Absent from practice Wednesday
Rotowire

Eagles' Jonathan Greenard: Misses practice Wednesday
Rotowire
Greenard (ankle) did not practice Wednesday.
Greenard exited Sunday's loss to the Rams. He is considered day-to-day, so his absence from practice Wednesday isn't a surprise. The 29-year-old has logged only 37 defensive snaps during the 2026 campaign, though his absence could allow more involvement from A.J. Epenesa and Arnold Ebiketie.

Eagles' Zack Baun: Limited at practice Wednesday
Rotowire
Baun (concussion) was limited during practice Wednesday.
Baun didn't suit up in the Week 4 loss to the Rams. If he can't get back on the field for the Week 5 meeting with the Jaguars, Jeremiah Trotter should continue to see an increase in snaps.
