Rodney McLeod Jr. - Page 6 - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Set to make season debut McLeod (knee) will suit up for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, according to coach Nick Sirianni, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.

Impact McLeod missed the first three games of the season while recovering from a torn ACL he suffered last season, but he'll finally make his season debut in Week 4. Per Sirianni, the 31-year-old safety will have a role in the game plan against the high-powered Chiefs passing attack, though it would be understandable if the team puts a cap on McLeod's reps coming off an extended absence.

Full participant in walkthrough McLeod (knee) was listed as a full participant in Wednesday's walkthrough practice.

Impact McLeod has yet to make his season debut, as he's continuing to heal from the torn ACL he injured last season. Although the safety logged full participation in what was a walkthrough practice Wednesday, McLeod may still need more time to recover. If McLeod can't play against the Chiefs on Sunday, expect K'Von Wallace to continue to start at strong safety.

Won't play Week 2 McLeod (knee) is officially out for Sunday's contest against the 49ers, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Impact McLeod was activated off the PUP list before the 53-man roster deadline, but he wasn't available for Week 1. The Eagles appear content on easing their starting safety back into game action after he suffered a torn ACL last season. K'Von Wallace played 63 snaps in McLeod's absence in the season opener and will likely see a similar workload in Week 2.

Limited practice Wednesday McLeod (knee) logged a limited practice Wednesday.

Impact McLeod spent much of training camp on the PUP list with the knee injury. Though he logged a limited practice prior to the team's Week 1 contest, he was unable to get in enough work to be game ready. It remains to be seen if he can ramp up his practice participation as the week goes on to be prepared for a Week 2 matchup against the 49ers.

Impact McLeod was activated off of the PUP list before the 53-man roster deadline, which gave Philly optimism that he would be available for Week 1. However, the Eagles will elect to be cautious and won't rush their starting safety back from his torn ACL. K'Von Wallace and Marcus Epps are the most likely candidates to fill in for McLeod.

Impact McLeod's status for Week 1 still seems to be up in the air. The veteran is trying to return in time for the Week 1 opener against Atlanta but it's possible McLeod will need to wait until Week 2 to make his 2021 debut. If McLeod is unable to play, expect K'Von Wallace to see plenty of snaps Sunday.
