Eagles Prepare for Jordan Mailata's Possible Return

Philadelphia Eagles' left tackle Jordan Mailata is nearing a return after a left hamstring injury kept him sidelined for four games. The Eagles have opened his 21-day practice window, making him eligible to play in the upcoming game against the Washington Commanders. Mailata has been listed as a full participant in walkthrough practices, though a decision on his availability for Thursday remains uncertain. The Eagles have made roster adjustments, including waiving tight end Jack Stoll, potentially to make room for Mailata's return. Coach Nick Sirianni noted the team will be creative in preparing Mailata physically due to the short week and lack of full practices. Despite the uncertainty, Mailata's return is anticipated as he has been actively participating in rehabilitation and team activities.
