Not returning Sunday Epps (concussion) will miss the remainder of Sunday's game against the Falcons, according to Josh Tolentino of The Philadelphia Inquirer.

Impact Epps suffered a concussion and hasn't been cleared to return, and this causes a big problem for the Eagles' secondary since they don't have Rodney McLeod available, either. This means Anthony Harris and probably K'Von Wallace will be tasked with bigger roles the rest of the way.

Starting against Atlanta Epps will be starting at safety Sunday against the Falcons, according to Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia.

Impact Epps will get the starting nod at safety over Rodney McLeod, but that isn't all that surprising considering he ended the 2020 season in a starting role as well. The former Wyoming standout managed 47 tackles (35 solo), four defended passes and two interceptions across 14 games in 2020.

Ends year as starter Epps managed 47 tackles (35 solo), four defensed passes and two interceptions across 14 games in 2020.

Impact Epps started four games in 2020, including the Eagles' last three contests, as the team spent much of the season moving pieces in the secondary while trying to find a working arrangement. The 25-year-old remains under contract with the team for two more seasons, and he could be in the mix to compete for a starting gig this offseason.

Cleared from COVID exempt list Epps was activated from the Eagles' COVID-19 exempt list Friday, Mike Kaye of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.

Impact Epps spent 13 days on the reserve/COVID-19 list, but he's been cleared for a crucial Week 11 road trip to Cleveland. With seven appearances and two starts to his name, the Wyoming product has recorded 19 tackles and one pass deflection in 2020. His defensive role has been inconsistent week-to-week, but with both starting safeties Jalen Mills and Rodney McLeod in line to play, Epps will likely be deployed as a rotational contributor in the secondary against the Browns.

Activated by Eagles Philadelphia activated Epps off the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

Impact Epps tested positive for the virus Nov. 5, so the fact that he was fully cleared is a positive sign. Epps is currently on an exempt list, so the Eagles will need to clear roster space in order for the Wyoming product to return to the field.

Tests positive for COVID-19 Epps tested positive for COVID-19 on Thursday and was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Impact Epps is reportedly asymptomatic, as he and the team will enter intensive protocols. The Eagles enter their bye week for Week 9, and Epps will need to turn in at least two negative tests across two days in order to gain clearance to return to the field.

Suiting up Thursday Epps (rib) upgraded to full practice participation Wednesday and doesn't carry an injury designation into Thursday's game against the Giants.

Impact Epps was forced to miss his first game of the season last week against Baltimore due to the rib injury but appears back to full health. The fact that the Wyoming product will play is a positive sign for the depth at safety for the Eagles, especially considering K'Von Wallace (shoulder) was already ruled out for the contest.

Sitting out Sunday Epps (ribs) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Ravens.

Impact Epps has played every game this season, including two starts, but he was unable to practice this week and will watch from the sidelines. The second-year safety has recorded 17 tackles and two pass breakups, and now rookie K'Von Wallace likely will handle more reps with the No. 8 scoring offense coming to town.

Back to full health Epps (lower body) is not listed on Wednesday's injury report.

Impact Epps dealt with a lower body injury during training camp, but he's shed the issue heading into the regular season. He'll provide the Eagles with a reserve safety option during Sunday's season opener against Washington.

Day-to-day Epps is considered day-to-day with a lower body injury, Mike Kaye of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.

Impact Epps presumably picked up the injury at practice. The severity of the issue is unclear, but a quick return would be advantageous, as he is competing to earn a role providing depth at free safety on the team's final roster. The 24-year-old suited up six times for Philly last season.
