Eagles injury report
The Eagles will be without some of their stars Sunday after last week's game against the Saints took out several key players.
Wide receiver A.J. Brown is out again with a hamstring injury that's kept him off the field since Week 2.
On Friday, the team ruled wide receiver DeVonta Smith out for Sunday due to a concussion he suffered against the Saints. Lane Johnson, who also sustained a concussion last week, was downgraded to out hours before kickoff.
To help beef up the lineup in the absence of Brown and Smith, the Eagles announced Saturday that they've activated wide receivers Parris Campbell and John Ross from the practice squad.
Impact of Hurricane Helene on Sunday
Florida's Gulf Coast is in the early stages of recovery after being slammed by Hurricane Helene last week.
While Raymond James Stadium is dry Sunday, Tampa, St. Petersburg and Clearwater were hit with some of the worst flooding from the storm. Helene destroyed parts of the infrastructure for bridges, roads, sewer, water and electricity on all of the Pinellas County barrier islands, so there is no water, sewer or electricity.
Some Philly fans had to cancel their plans to travel for the game altogether, while others told CBS News Philadelphia they had to move hotels ahead of the storm.
By kickoff time Sunday, it'll be 85 degrees in Tampa with the chance for some passing showers. By the end of the game, temps could climb up to 90 once showers move out.
Former Tampa Bay QB Tom Brady calling Eagles-Bucs game
Though most famous for his tenure as quarterback for the New England Patriots, Tom Brady played three seasons in Tampa Bay, from 2020-2022.
Brady joined the FOX Sports broadcast team for the 2024-25 season, and will be calling the game Sunday with Kevin Burkhardt.
The Philadelphia Eagles, led by quarterback Nick Foles, beat Brady and the Patriots 41-33 in Super Bowl LII.
