Eagles injury update: Nelson Agholor ruled out again, Cooper questionable

The Philadelphia Eagles look to hand the Carolina Panthers their first loss of the season on Sunday night.

The Eagles might have to pull off a victory with two of their starting wide receivers. 

Rookie Nelson Agholor is ruled out for the second consecutive game after suffering a left ankle injury in Week 5 against the New Orleans Saints

Riley Cooper injured his knee in the Eagles 27-7 victory of the New York Giants on Monday night. He didn't practice on Wednesday or Thursday, but he did practice in full on Friday. Josh Huff also injured his knee against the Giants, but he is expected to play.

If both Agholor and Cooper are out, the Eagles will call upon Huff, Miles Austin and Seyi Ajirotutu to take snaps at wide receiver alongside Jordan Matthews

On the defensive side of the ball, linebackers Mychal Kendricks and DeMeco Ryans are both ruled questionable with hamstring injuries. Kendricks practiced throughout the week. Whereas Ryans has sat out, until being a limited participant on Friday.
