Dillard gives the Eagles some offensive line depth they haven't had in recent weeks.
Jordan Mailata suffered a shoulder injury against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 4 and didn't play last week against the Arizona Cardinals.

But, Mailata was listed as a full participant in practice on Friday, which means he should be good to go on Sunday against Dallas. And the Eagles will need it.
The Eagles' offensive line has a tough matchup against Micah Parsons, DeMarcus Lawrence and the rest of the Cowboys' defense.
Dallas is ranked second in the league 20 sacks this season.
