JANUARY 22, 2025 • PHILADELPHIAEAGLES.COM

Placed on IR due to neck injury The Eagles placed Covey (neck) on injured reserve Saturday.

Impact Covey has been nursing a neck injury that he picked up against the Ravens in Week 13. That has forced him to be sidelined for the Eagles' last three games, and he has already been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Cowboys. Covey's placement on IR means his regular season is over, but he could return in the postseason if the Eagles make it to the NFC Championship Game. Covey will finish the 2024 regular season with seven catches (on eight targets) for 34 yards while adding 46 punt return yards in five games.

Won't play in Week 17 Covey (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Cowboys.

Impact Covey has been dealing with a neck issue since Dec. 1, when he was injured in a win over the Ravens. The third-year wideout didn't play in any of the Eagles' subsequent three games, but it appeared he could return this week after being deemed a full practice participant Wednesday and Thursday. However, Covey didn't practice Friday, so he may have suffered a setback. Kenneth Gainwell will likely continue to handle kick returns with Covey out of action.

DECEMBER 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Estimated as full participant Covey (neck) was estimated as a full participant in Philadelphia's practice report Wednesday.

Impact Covey has missed the past two games due to a neck injury but is seemingly healthy again. He will likely resume his duties as the team's punt returner and as a depth receiver during Sunday's rivalry matchup versus the Cowboys.

Ruled out for Week 16 Covey (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Commanders.

Out for Week 15 Covey (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Steelers.

Impact Covey upgraded to a full practice Thursday, but he's still not going to play in Week 15. Cooper DeJean is a candidate to return punts against Pittsburgh, as he did last Sunday versus Carolina.

DECEMBER 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Full participant Thursday Covey (neck) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

Impact The wide receiver and punt returner was a limited participant Wednesday. Covey suffered the injury in Week 13 against the Ravens and missed the Eagles' Week 14 clash with the Panthers. The third-year pro should resume his punt returning duties Sunday against the Steelers.

DECEMBER 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Opens week with limited practice Covey (neck) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday.

Impact Covey hurt his neck Week 13 against Baltimore and missed this past Sunday's victory versus Carolina. By beginning this week with a limited practice session, Covey could potentially return to action Sunday against Pittsburgh. If Covey can play, his impact would likely be felt mostly on special teams, as he has worked as Philadelphia's lead punt returner while seeing limited snaps on offense.

Impact Covey logged limited practices Thursday and Friday, but he'll sit out Sunday. His next chance to play will be Week 15 against the Steelers. Cooper DeJean, Jahan Dotson and Ainias Smith are all candidates to return punts in Covey's absence.

DECEMBER 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Upgraded to limited Thursday Covey (neck) was listed as a limited practice participant Thursday.

Impact Covey didn't participate in Wednesday's walkthrough due to a neck injury he suffered against the Ravens this past Sunday. His ability to practice Thursday is a sign that he is progressing in his recovery, though he would have to log a full practice Friday in order to avoid an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against Carolina.

DECEMBER 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Estimated as DNP Covey (neck) was listed as a DNP on Wednesday's estimated injury report.

Impact Covey suffered a neck injury during a punt return in the second half of the Eagles' 24-19 win over the Ravens this past Sunday. Although the Eagles' session Wednesday was a walkthrough, his DNP still doesn't bode well for his chances of playing against the Panthers on Sunday. Covey will have to return to practice over the next two days in order to have a chance at suiting up for Week 14.

Suffers neck injury in win Covey suffered a neck injury during Sunday's 24-19 win over the Ravens, Olivia Reiner of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Impact Covey sustained the injury on a punt return in the second half, finishing his day with four returns for 30 yards in the victory. The 27-year-old's status at practice this week will be worth monitoring ahead of the team's Week 14 matchup with the Panthers.

DECEMBER 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Reinstated from injured reserve The Eagles activated Covey (shoulder) from injured reserve Saturday, and he carries no injury designation into Sunday's game against the Rams.

Impact Covey suffered a shoulder injury in Week 3 against the Saints, which forced him to be sidelined for the Eagles' last seven games. The 27-year-old wideout was a full participant in practice all week, and he's progressed through his injury enough to play Sunday. Covey has logged seven catches on as many targets for 34 yards in three regular-season games.

NOVEMBER 23, 2024 • PHILADELPHIAEAGLES.COM

Could return in Week 12 Covey (shoulder) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Rams.

Impact Covey has missed the Eagles' last seven games due to a shoulder injury sustained the Week 3 win over the Saints. The Utah product practiced in full all week and appears to be trending toward playing in Sunday's contest, but he must still be activated to Philadelphia's active roster in order to suit up. If Covey can play in Week 12, he'll likely assume the Eagle's top punt return duties and serve as a depth piece in their wide receiver room.

NOVEMBER 22, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Logs full practice in return Covey (shoulder) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.

Impact The Eagles designated Covey to return from injured reserve Wednesday, and he opened the week strong as a full participant for Philadelphia's first official practice. If he's able practice without limitations over the next two days, Covey could be activated off IR and be available for Sunday's game against the Rams. Over the first three games of the regular season, he logged seven catches on as many targets for 34 yards.

NOVEMBER 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Returning to practice Covey (shoulder) has been designated to return from injured reserve and will practice Wednesday, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.

Impact Covey has been sidelined since Week 3 by the injury, but his return to the field is officially in motion. He'll now have a 21-day window to practice with the team before he needs to be added to the active roster, but he could play as soon as Sunday against the Rams if he's healthy enough to do so.
