Eagles' Will Shipley: Placed on injured reserve
The Eagles placed Shipley (foot) on injured reserve Friday.
After being diagnosed with a partial tear of his plantar fascia earlier this week, Shipley was slated for a multi-week absence, and he now will miss at least the next four games while on IR. He'll join Tank Bigsby (abdomen) on the list, and with Saquon Barkley currently tending to a lingering hamstring injury, the Eagles currently host just two healthy RBs (Dameon Pierce and Carson Steele) on the active roster. Shipley's next chance for game action is Sunday, Nov. 22 against the Steelers.

Eagles' Will Shipley: DNP on Thursday
Shipley (foot) didn't practice Thursday.
Considering Shipley suffered a partial tear of his plantar fascia during this past Sunday's defeat to the Jaguars in London and is facing a multi-week absence, his lack of practice reps so far this week is expected. With No. 1 RB Saquon Barkley (hamstring) also not practicing Wednesday or Thursday, the Eagles may be preparing to deploy the duo of Dameon Pierce and Carson Steele out of their backfield Sunday against the Panthers.

Eagles' Will Shipley: Doesn't practice Wednesday
Shipley (foot) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.
It's not much of a surprise to see a DNP next to Shipley's name on the Eagles' first injury report of Week 6 prep, given that the third-year running back was diagnosed with a partial tear of his plantar fascia following the team's 19-17 Week 5 loss to the Jaguars in London. Shipley is facing a multi-week absence, and with Saquon Barkley (hamstring) also idle for Wednesday's session, the Eagles may have to turn to Dameon Pierce to lead the backfield against the Panthers on Sunday.

Eagles' Will Shipley: Could face multi-week absence
Shipley (foot) was diagnosed with a partial tear of his plantar fascia after exiting Sunday's 19-17 loss to the Jaguars in London and could be sidelined multiple weeks, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Called upon to make his second career start with Saquon Barkley (hamstring) out for Week 5 and with Tank Bigsby (core) on injured reserve, Shipley played just 13 snaps and accounted for 13 yards and a touchdown on six touches (five carries, one reception) before leaving the game in the second quarter. After his foot injury was revealed to be a plantar fascia tear, Shipley now appears likely to be sidelined for at least next Sunday's game versus Carolina. Barkley is being viewed as week-to-week, and if both he and Shipley end up missing more time, the Eagles could be left with Dameon Pierce and Carson Steele as well as practice-squad member Jaydon Blue as their backfield options for Week 6.

Eagles' Will Shipley: Won't return to Sunday's game
The Eagles ruled out Shipley (foot) for the remainder of Sunday's game versus the Jaguars in London.
With Saquon Barkley (hamstring) ruled out for Week 5 and Tank Bigsby (core) landing on injured reserve, Shipley looked poised to handle a featured role out of the Philadelphia backfield. However, Shipley's day came to an end late in the second quarter, when he sustained a foot injury that will ultimately keep him from returning. The Eagles will finish out the contest with Dameon Pierce and Carson Steele as their main options out of the backfield. Shipley finished with five carries for six yards and a touchdown to go with a seven-yard reception on two targets.

Eagles' Will Shipley: Questionable to return Sunday
Shipley is questionable to return to Sunday's game versus the Jaguars in London due to a foot injury.
Shipley was dinged up after a carry in the second quarter and visited the medical tent on the Eagles sideline before going to the locker room. He was getting most of the backfield reps in place of an absent Saquon Barkley (hamstring) before his departure, and if Shipley is unable to re-enter Sunday's contest, the Eagles backfield likely will be paced by Dameon Pierce. Carson Steele is also on hand for reps.

Eagles' Will Shipley: Philly's top RB for Week 5
Shipley will lead the Eagles' backfield against the Jaguars on Week 5 due to the absences of both Saquon Barkley (hamstring) and Tank Bigsby (abdomen, IR), Chris McPherson of the Eagles' official site reports.
Barkley and Bigsby both sustained injuries during the Eagles' Week 4 loss to the Rams, and with both running backs sidelined for Week 5, the Eagles will turn to Shipley to handle RB1 duties while Dameon Pierce and Carson Steele provide backfield depth. Shipley is averaging 3.4 yards per carry though four games this season, and his work will be cut out for him against a Jaguars defense that allows the third-fewest rushing yards in the NFL (74.3).

Eagles' Will Shipley: Team's other two RBs hurt Week 4
Shipley rushed six times for 23 yards and didn't catch his only target in Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Rams. He also returned three kickoffs for 65 yards.
Shipley was the last man standing in Philadelphia's backfield after Saquon Barkley (hamstring) exited in the first quarter and Tank Bigsby (undisclosed) left in the fourth quarter. Bigsby had been working ahead of Shipley after Barkley's exit, but if neither of Philadelphia's top two running backs are available in Week 5, Shipley could take on the lead role against the Jaguars in London.

Eagles' Will Shipley: Avoids injury designation for Week 4
Shipley (foot) practiced in full on Friday and does not carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Rams.
Shipley has been battling a foot injury. He didn't practice Wednesday and was limited Thursday. However, after logging a full session Friday, the 24-year-old is good to go for the Week 4 meeting with Los Angeles. Shipley is second on the team in snaps at the running back position behind Saquon Barkley, though he hasn't done much, amassing 28 yards off nine carries throughout the first three weeks of the 2026 campaign.

Eagles' Will Shipley: DNP Wednesday
Shipley (foot) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.
Shipley ended Week 3 prep with back-to-back limited practices and had no injury designation heading into the Eagles' 27-7 loss to the Bears on Monday Night Football. Shipley's downgrade to a non-participant in Wednesday's session could be precautionary or could imply that the running back aggravated the issue during Monday's game.

Eagles' Will Shipley: No injury tag for Week 3
Shipley (foot) was a limited participant in Saturday's practice but does not carry an injury designation into Monday's game against the Bears.
Shipley ended the week with back-to-back limited practices while working through a foot injury, but he's been officially cleared to play for MNF. Saquon Barkley (shoulder) and Tank Bigsby (abdomen) have also been cleared to play, so Shipley will serve as the Eagles' third option out of the backfield.

Eagles' Will Shipley: Upgrades to limited Friday
Shipley (foot) was a limited participant in Friday's practice.
Shipley missed Thursday's practice with a foot injury he likely suffered in Sunday's win over the Titans. The running back has quickly improved his participation, a good sign for the 24-year-old's availability for Monday night's game against the Bears.

Eagles' Will Shipley: Misses practice Thursday
Shipley (foot) did not participate in practice Thursday.
The running back is apparently dealing with a foot injury as the practice week begins for Philadelphia. Shipley carried the ball seven times for 24 yards and caught two passes for five yards in the Eagles' 24-20 win over the Titans last Sunday, seeing an expanded role with Saquon Barkley on the bench for much of the game. Barkley (shoulder) was limited Thursday, and Shipley could play a bigger role again if the starter can't go this coming Monday at Chicago, but that will depend on the Clemson product's status.
