p>On Thursday, the Philadelphia Eagles announced their second official injury report in advance of Sunday night's game against the undefeated Carolina Panthers.
Inside linebacker Kiko Alonso (knee) was limited in Thursday's practice, but definitely won't play on Sunday. He aims to make a return in Week 9 in a game against the Dallas Cowboys.
Mychal Kendricks (hamstring) was a full participant in practice on both Wednesday and Thursday, which means that there's at least a decent chance of him playing on Sunday at Bank of America Stadium.
DeMeco Ryans (hamstring) hasn't practiced all week. He told reporters on Thursday that he's unsure if he's going to play.
Starting wide receivers Riley Cooper (knee) and Nelson Agholor (ankle) also haven't practiced yet this week. Players like Josh Huff, Miles Austin and even Seyi Ajirotutu might be asked to step up and make some plays on the outside.
